Sentenced - Farewell

Rest in peace, Miika Tenkula (6th March 1974 - 19th February 2009) “Gone are the times when I felt alive Gone are those nights with you by my side And now here I stand as the shadows grow deep With the death on my hand at your grave I weep“ (No More Beating As One / Crimson) Lyrics: I’ve dragged myself through the blood and mud And with burning eyes pushed the love away No, I’m not the kind of man who’d play for keeps The enchantment lies in the moment of goodbyes For eternity My sun has set down I dream to flee As I suffer the black bleed into me I regret every single day I ever lived in my life I gave all I had in me So it’s time to say Goodbye The breath of wind beneath my beating wings Is slowly dying down Yet raging it’s final blow! As it crumbles down my castle in the air The relieving words of farewell end my earthly Hell For eternity My sun has set down It has ceased to be The lightning that once burned in me I regret every single day I ever lived in my life I gave all I had in me So it’s time to say Goodbye... .
