Samael - Crown Lyrics
If eyes are the mirror of the soulYou will find in mine the scorn and apathyYou will read my hatred as in a cursd bookYou will see yourself as I see youIt is a mirror somber and opaqueWhich protects me, which stifles meA great ditch around the heartWhich rejects, which estranges meThere is a world in my head dead world where nothing livesAnd it is there I am, too farFar too far, to be rejoinedA crown of thorns is still a crownI am a king in a kingdom of sufferingI have taken my time to reach this stageI have taken pains to torture myselfTo descend, to descendInto pain, I existAnd if my brain is numbedThe thorn in my fleshCan overcome apathyThere is a glory in humiliationA throne to be taken, a crown to winI have no more tears,And my smile has lost its brillianceI have forgotten who I was,I have killed my emotionsCrushed, empty, weary,Always standing, I am a treeAwaiting the lightning.
