What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
Whispered words beneath the floating autumn leaves
2
Flying softly on the southern breeze
3
Fragments of light between the branches and trees
4
I wish I would stay here forever
5
The sun is sinking behind mountains of old
6
Brushing faintly clouds of red and gold
7
Night-time's flinging a vast veil of velvet across fields and forest
8
Trespassing the havens of daylight's temporary borders.
9
I knew my game could gain me but grief, the fairy tale was on though brief
10
Trespassing the havens of secrecy's temporary borders.
11
Scratching the surface of times seemingly forgotten
12
Of you who once were mine betrothen
13
Digging 'neath layers of emotions now rotten
14
I feel myself slip away
15
Nostalgic entertainment tingled by the past
16
You were the one to be mine at last
17
But now my memory's ever fading so fast
18
Keeping emotions at bay
19
Here I sit, and memories unfold
20
My feelings are hollow, I'm feeling so old
21
[Female]
22
"I feel it fade away and cry tears in solitude"
23
Trespassing the havens of night-time's temporary borders
24
As shadows collapse in the mating of day and night, crows are circling in
25
Ominous flight
26
Trespassing the havens of my own temporary borders (temporary borders)
27
[Solo]
28
I tried... I tried hard to believe
29
Thinking of us has left me but grief
30
I cannot look ahead, the past is all I see
31
Moments together, but time's a thief
32
Shadows recurring from times long since passed
33
Our time and now in a perfect contrast
34
[Female]
35
"As I see you sitting by my grave
36
I feel your presence, but can't say a word
37
Your heart and love, patient and brave
38
But my soul is too late for you to save"
39
I am probably a fool still thinking of you
40
Night after night...
41
There's not much else I can do
42
For neither myself nor you
43
Maybe I should leave and never come back to this place...
44
But I know too surely that I'm only fooling myself
45
I'm only fooling myself

[I had just joined illnath, got their lyrics and listened through all the music which was going to be on the cd. I was like a kid in a candy-store, and got to work that very evening at Tobias place with a lyric piece (which Tobias also participated strongly on). The lyrics I had received had some qualities, but mainly, I thought, I could do them better. The guys had already read some of my lyrics and pointed out 'Frozen constellations', 'Bring down the witching hour' and 'By the hands of violent winter' as the only songs they did not want to change.]

[I guess the idea of a gothic romance in a moody black metal song is not very original. I assume I wanted to make a presentation of our own gothic romance song, and at the same time I enjoy writing these kind of lyrics, even though, as mentioned, they do not give much to the black metal scene today.]

[Partly based on the coming summer (it was written sometime in may, I think), partly based on my poor lovelife and strange feeling of suddenly being in another country doing music with people I didn't know a week ago. I alone, yet somehow welcome and at calm here. Just like the narrator in the song. It was also a good possibility to use Lena's vocals.]
