Candlemass - My Funeral Dreams Lyrics






There is a light, a flickering light
The eye in the sky is now approaching
I fall into, the well of taboo
In the maelstrom of morte I am floating
I'm going down, deeper and down
The door to the other world is open

High court of the witch lord
I got the invitation
Curved blade of the doom sword
No room for hesitation
Like a lamb to the slaughter
I died in the Douaumant trenches
Did the devils daughter
In the realm of superstition

Do I have to go, where all the sinners burn?
It isn't real, am I able to return?

MY FUNERAL DREAMS

I'm one out of 13
Got hit by an poisoned arrow
3 rusty daggers
The voice of the scarecrow
I'm trapped here by treason
And strangled in the blue light
Was shot for no reason
In the minefield of midnight

Do I have to go, where all the sinners burn?
It is not real, but am I able to return?

MY FUNERAL DREAMS

It's dark, I'm blind, I'm trying to climb
Up from the holes into my head
In my dream I stab and I scream
I'm dead without leaving my own bed

When I'm awake I don't recall
What I've been doing there at all
I don't know what I've become
My mind is gone when I'm alone

MY FUNERAL DREAMS

Candlemass My Funeral Dreams Comments
  1. C.... L....

    I lost count how many times
    I did rewind the intro!!

    Nothing better than a beer
    & this Doom on Sunday!

    👿🤘

  2. i.... r....

    I'm eating WAY too fast.

  3. A.... E....

    I'm getting albums with Robert! Wow

    A.... E....

    Enjoy, haven't heard the last one myself yet, but the first two are indeed very much enjoyable!

  4. T.... C....

    The best song by candlemass ive ever heard!wow

  5. S.... ....

    "When I'm awake I don't recall
    ,
    What I've been doing there at all!
    I don't know what I've become
    ,
    My mind is gone when I'm alone!"

    Doesn't get more epic than this. I love this band.

  6. R.... B....

    Robert Lowe <3 :o This song and Mirror Of Sorrow by Solitude Aeternus they really hit the spot, these 2 songs to be remembered forever. Do you guys know of any songs by Candlemass or Solitude Aeternus (or another epic doom band) that have the same vibes as these 2 songs?

    R.... B....

    Fabulous! Maybe you try "Only This (And Nothing More)" by Solitude Aeturnus. Production is not at all that, but a great atmosphere in the song it self.

    R.... B....

    @MainlyRock Just tried it, was okay but nothing like these 2 songs. If you have songs like this from any other trad/epic doom bands tell me I need to get more of this vibe

    R.... B....

    Not sure what else to recommend, that album took some real time to grow on me. I forgot about it for years, the poor sound quality was the reason. Now it is one my favourites of them. Perhaps you can try "Shattered My Spirit", bit more ballad-style like Fade To Black, but again... wunderful atmosphere.

  7. I.... i....

    doom metal

  8. g.... j....

    is it just me or the opening sounds so much like "The Melancholy Spirit" by Agalloch??

    g.... j....

    Eh kinda. The Melancholy Spirit is an amazing song though.

    g.... j....

    Oh thanks for showing me a new band <3

  9. A.... ....

    I love the intro of this song, anybody else?

    A.... ....

    I do! And the bridge is so emotional

  10. J.... M....

    The opening riff sounds like DSBM.

    J.... M....

    Glad I'm not the only one who feels this. Gives me strong Shining and Nocturnal Depression feels.

  11. T.... ....

    This shit is fucking amazing, i can't stop listening to it.

  12. T.... ....

    10/10 better than bassalad

  13. B.... A....

    That intro is amazing. So eerie.

  14. C.... ....

    I'm Christian and love this song is that weird

    C.... ....

    !? Why should it be weird!? Good music is good music. I listen to bands that sing about Christianity, Satasnism, popsicles or whatever. Lyricly take from it what you want and need, you know what is right and best for you anyway.
    And btw Candlemass not about Satan...

    C.... ....

    ok thanks i feel embarrassed when i ask if something is satanic because ill listen to anything except satanic songs

    C.... ....

    Don't worrry about it, don't feel embarrassed for asking a question. Better to ask a question than basing an opinion on a suspicion ;)! Most dark stories in Metal music are just sort of horror, often and/or based on legends or true stories.
    And enjoy this mighty fine music :D! Good to hear you like it...

    C.... ....

    cabematt101 1211 it's weird that you need to tell us that you're Christian. If you like it, You like it.

  15. F.... K....

    Very sabbath-esque

  16. D.... Z....

    This kinda sounds like Black Sabbath with Dio

    D.... Z....

    +Finn Kellmurray yes pray to peter steel panther

    D.... Z....

    Finn Kellmurray so you're here from the same video

    D.... Z....

    @Finn Kellmurray Dion ruined bass salad

    D.... Z....

    He sounds so much like dio it's scary

    D.... Z....

    Go listen to him sing for Solitude Aeturnus.

  17. A.... G....

    Doom metallicus,Nightfall and Tales of Creation are their best album.

    A.... G....

    +Alistair ‘Frakass57’ Galadius Not denying that in any way. Doesn't stop me from loving other albums and songs. Like for instance the Chapter VI album.

  18. T.... ....

    There is a light, a flickering light
    The eye in the sky is now approaching
    I fall into, the well of taboo
    In the maelstrom of morte I am floating
    I'm going down, deeper and down
    The door to the other world is open

    High court of the witch lord
    I got the invitation
    Curved blade of the doom sword
    No room for hesitation
    Like a lamb to the slaughter
    I died in the Douaumant trenches
    Did the devils daughter
    In the realm of superstition

    Do I have to go, where all the sinners burn?
    It isn't real, am I able to return?

  19. R.... ....

    i was on a concert from them. i came 40 minutes to late but that wasn´t that bad i just missed 2 notes

    R.... ....

    Jhoffilms for life!

    R.... ....

    Obviously you never listened to Skepticism from Finland, or Esoteric from the UK =PPPP

  20. m.... i....

    This guy is ok, I prefer Messiah though.

    m.... i....

    @michael incorvaia I prefer the voice of Robert Lowe, not the reason why I uploaded this though. It was nowhere to be found at the time online. I like him better in Solitude Aeturnus though. To each their own, Messiah is great, but for me hard to listen to for two albums straight... his voice tends to get on my nerves after a few songs, back then and still to this day.They had some fine singers over the years...

    m.... i....

    he is way better in solitude aeturnus

    m.... i....

    He's brilliant! 💟

  21. j.... s....

    jhoffilms

    j.... s....

    You know it.

    j.... s....

    @MainlyRock He means someone who made a video called "How to Be a Doom Metal Vocalist", and used this song in it.

    j.... s....

    Ah thanks for clearing that up :)!

    j.... s....

    now I know what I meant lol
