Candlemass - Psalms For The Dead Lyrics
Is there a sun there in your hand?
A little light that battles with itself
Is there a message in the sand,
That tells me how to set the world in flames?
Do we care... do we count the stains?
When will the sunrise stay a day?
Laugh and shine, or is it all the same?
Psalms for the dead
Song for the living
And a wreath for absent friends
So tell me... fools and troubadours, can a simple stream grow into a flood?
A beggar man, become a president?
Idols, gods... dictators and divine,
Is this the path where blind men lead the blind?
What is love, but only a dream...?
Those pains and pyres were meant to set us free!
When time is gone, the page is turned
The door is closed and all is done and said
The band has played... the spotlight's burned
All that's left are
Psalms for the dead

Candlemass Psalms For The Dead Comments
mats version is best
I think Mats is a better singer than Rob in general, but this song is Rob's. Mats lacks that smooth quality that Rob has here.
@Anetron Well, Mats Level really rocked on that song live : https://youtu.be/NBuo0jm3RLI?t=2837
In this particular song Level sounds more ... memorable.

Is there a sun there in your hand?

Is there a message in the sand,

Do people cry or is it rain?
Do we care... do we count the stains?
When will the sunrise stay a day?
Laugh and shine, or is it all the same?
PSALMS FOR THE DEAD
SONG FOR THE LIVING
AND A WREATH FOR ABSENT FRIENDS
So tell me... fools and troubadours, can a simple stream grow into a flood?
A beggar man, become a president?
And a sip of wine be shared... and thick as blood?
Idols, gods... Dictators and divine,
is this the path where blind men lead the blind?
What is love, but only a dream...?
Those pains and pyres were meant to set us free!
When time is gone, the page is turned
The door is closed and all is done and said
The band has played... the spotlight's burned
ALL THAT'S LEFT ARE
PSALMS FOR THE DEAD
