Song lyrics

Give me the drink of the fluid
That disintegrates.
And lend me the sweet balm and blessing of forgetfulness, empty and strong.
Lethe!
Oh, Lethe!

Hold me near, unravel the stars,
As I speed through the heavens, I speed through the night,
For you are my blade and my rope.
You are my...
You are my Lethe!

You are my all!

In currents of cobalt, you storm through my heart
To sever, to puncture the memories that burn.
Let sweep through the arteries in sharp stabs of pain
Your talon-like fingers to kill me again.

In currents of cobalt, you storm through my heart
To sever, to puncture the memories that burn.
Let sweep through the arteries in sharp stabs of pain
Your talon-like fingers to kill me again.

(And again, and again, and again!)
Steal me, invade me, and charge me again.

(And again, and again, and again!)
For I burn, and I shudder,
Burn with each movement of...

So, cleansed through a floodlight,
I appear, renewed and reforged,
Caressed by the sweet balm and blessing of forgetfulness, empty and strong.

Lethe!

Hold me near, my one friend and guide,
As I drown through your fingers, drown through your love.
For you are the life that I hate,
You are my, you are my...

Drag me down in passionate sighs
With the ocean above me and flames in my eyes,
And grant me a life I can live!
Without...

Take me away...
Take me away...

From the life that I hate!
