Dark Tranquillity Lyrics

Punish My Heaven Lyrics

We are the outstretched fingers 

that seize and hold the wind... 

The strangeness of awekening 

is an oh so silent world 

Breathlessly waiting 

for the first proud beams of light 

As the hours grow longer 

and the shadows never fall 

My sky has forsaken me 

My desperation grows 

Bring me the light 

in the darkness that never ends 

the dawn will never come 

punish my heaven 

We have arrived 

at the outermost crossroads 

The charge of cosmos 

at our atmospheric skies 

will cause our fall 

If I had wings, would I be forgiving? 

If I had horns, 

would there be flames to shy my smile? 

Hymns of loss are heard 

from the masses in the streets 

Praising the last of days 

I punish 

Bring me the night 

in the fires that never end 

The dawn will never come 

Punish me heaven 

The charge of cosmos 

Charging at us from unearthly distance 

I challenge the universe 

It's the choice between heaven and hell 

My soul bears all the weight of mountains 

As mankind weaves its silent end 

Can there be no forgiveness? 

I curse the heaven above me 

As the light sinks through 

my outstretched fingers 

Fading in my open arms 

Make each tear in my bare hands 

a lifetime in hell 

On this last day of light 

when our autumn leaves fell 

And as heaven itself commands me 

our of its lair 

My face lined with darkness I'll go!
