Insomnium Pale Morning Star
[Verse 1]
Long is the trail of the day
Into the lap of the evening dusk
Sweetest the hour of sleep
For I am weary of sorrow and pain
Into the tender night I now lapse
Into the slumber so sound and deep
Arching over the ravines of time (Time, time)
Bridge into the shrouded land
[Chorus]
For, for you left before me
My, my pale morning star
Now, now you walk in undying light
And I'm, I'm still chained in this rimed soil
[Verse 2]
When twilight reaves my senses
The heavenly ones will linger here
Right here by my feverish side
The ghosts of those I loved
Gone is the cruelest longing now (Now)
Undone this grief of mine
[Chorus]
For, for you left before me
My, my pale morning star
Now, now you walk in undying light
And I'm, I'm still chained in this rimed soil
[Verse 3]
And still I can sense you
Still I can hear your voice
Still I quiver under your touch
Celestial shine in your hair
Empyreal crown upon your brow
Radiance blurs my teary eyes
[Bridge]
Broken is the sphere of the body
As the spirit will ascend
[Verse 4]
Broken is the sphere of the body
As the spirit will ascend
Over the infinite boundaries
Over the gulches of death
[Verse 5]
Once you carried me from the night into the sun (Sun)
And now I follow your steps into the unseen land
Sore are these weary eyes when I pass into the light
Blinding the eternal glow after the long path in the dark
Wide awake amidst the dream, I stand by your side
I tremble before your gleam, my pale morning star
[Outro]
I stand by your side
My pale morning star
