Opeth Lyrics

The Drapery Falls Lyrics

Please remedy my confusion

And thrust me back to the day

The silence of your seclusion

Brings night into all you say

Pull me down again

And guide me into pain

I'm counting nocturnal hours

Drowned visions in haunted sleep

Faint flickering of your powers

Leaks out to show what you keep

Pull me down again

And guide me into

There is failure inside

This test I can't persist

Kept back by the enigma

No criterias demanded here

Deadly patterns made my wreath

Prospersous in your ways

Pale ghost in the corner

Pouring a caress on your shoulder

Puzzled by shrewd innocence

Runs a thick tide beneath

Ushered into inner graves

Nails bleeding from the struggle 

It is the end for the weak at heart

Always the same

A lullaby for the ones who've lost all

Reeling inside

My gleaming eye in your necklace reflects

Stare of primal regrets

You turn your back and you walk away

Never again

Spiralling to the ground below

Like Autumn leaves left in the wake to fade away

waking up to your sound again

And lapse into the ways of misery
