Idle Blood - Katatonia

You there

Bringer of my despair

You are stagnation of hope and will

O you personify loss and remorse

And you hide until my fears reappear

The love for life once bright

(Out of sight)

A burning fuse

The only flame I have

Fate’s spiral down this curve

(Shall only serve)

The seeds growing my misery

These wounds kill time

My struggle sublime

Idle the blood

A black state of mind

All dreams left behind

You claim to be my long absent friend

You are the cancer that just moved in You come with the dark night of the soul

But I am turning my back on you

You know I do Idle the blood

A black state of mind

All my dreams left behind
