Testo The act of darkening Katatonia

The act of darkening

So dark,
once an amusement park.
Troubled whispers sound,
on a mute merry-go-round.

So cold,
once a playground of gold.
Caved in long ago,
and then poisoned with the snow.

Oceans of time,
broken patterns align.
Hearts washed upon the isle.

It carries your name,
like radiance in the rain.
The wailing sirens alarm.

Old memories hang on,
and gravitate by weights of sorrow.
Through cracks and wounds,
our pain reflected in a thousand mirrors.

It is time for deeds to take the shapes,
of vows and codes of promise.
The time to let our minds speak silently,
in the act of darkening.

Out of reach,
out of reach and gone from view.
One step behind,
now light is one step behind you.

Other side,
on the other side of the soul.
Final role,
the void resolves one final role.

Darkening...

Out of reach,
out of reach and gone from view.
One step behind,
now light is one step behind you.

Other side,
on the other side of the soul.
Final role,
the void resolves one final role.

Collapse into absence...
