Lay The Ghost To Rest - Insomnium

Frequented by the displeasing memories

Haunted by the creatures born of night

Sunk deep in the dejection and distress

Weak and powerless to severe the ties

Bound in the dream world

Wide-awake for every hour of sleep

Faltering towards the future

Only to come across with the past

No hope beacons here

No rays of light lingers

Underneath the black earth

Where the forgotten wait

No love resides here

No solace can be found

Underneath the cold soil

Where the sleeping gods lie

There is nothing to remember

When you are lost

There is nothing to strive for

When you are gone

Now rest for you are tired, let it go

Dive into sleepless dream, embrace oblivion

The moments of light between the darkness

Are brief and flee fast in the house of dead

Bound in the dream world

Wide-awake for every hour of sleep

No hope beacons here

No rays of light lingers

Underneath the black earth

Where the forgotten wait

No love resides here

No solace can be found

Underneath the cold soil

Where the sleeping gods lie

There is nothing to remember

When you are lost

There is nothing to strive for

When you are gone

Searching my way out of confusion

In this cold night cold as my heart

Trying to find a resolution

Assurance and strength to just go on

I'm in the thousand winds that blow

In the circling flight of blackbird

In the stars that shine at night

In the last dying rays of light

Be gone sorrow

Leave your dead behind

Stay away grief

Lay the ghosts to rest

Be gone sorrow

Leave your dead behind

Stay away grief

Lay the ghosts to rest
