Candlemass - The Edge Of Heaven Lyrics






A shapeless form
A mindless soul
Senseless with no control
Eyes so closed
A heart that sleeps
A memory, a thought that is gone

I am born
Still I'm no more
A dying illusion
In the dream I am fading

"Oh Lord! This must be heaven"
tears in my eyes
A sweet dream bathing in sunlight
never to end

Shapes of angels
visions of grace
Promised love and delight
Let me be

There at the edge of heaven
where darkness begins
Twilight was calling my name
A cry in the night

I felt a chill in my heart
come to me
Somebody danced on my grave
Let me be

At the edge of Heaven [x2]

A faceless shadow
A blinded fool
Lost in the twilight zone
Dream or madness
Heaven or hell
A riddle the key to the spell

I am born
Still I'm no more
A dying illusion
In the dream I am fading

At the edge of Heaven [x4]

    “A memory, a thought that is gone.”

  31. a.... k....

    Messiah was 21 when they recorded this. True tenor!

  32. P.... ....

    Omg the solo is one of the best I’ve ever heard. Perfect balance of melody and technique!

  33. V.... C....

    Lords do doom metal

  34. G.... D....

    I like this better than the Wham version.

  35. C.... o....

    Just one question: is there anyone who is actually able to sing this w/o going out of tune? (Apart from Messiah Marcolin himself, I mean. Of course.)
    Am I the only one who thinks it is bloody difficult to sing?

    C.... o....

    He has got an operatic voice, so unique and specially in metal, definitely unrepeatable

  36. y.... ....

    Ακομα ανατριχιάζω

  37. L.... G....

    A memory, a *THOT* that is gone...

  38. D.... C....

    I bought this not long after it came out and I’ll have to say for me, Messiah was an acquired taste on Vocals. Nobody can deny his talent but the vibrato can be a bit much

    D.... C....

    He doesn't sing like King Diamond, though

  39. n.... d....

    An amazing tenor he is. Why was he never in Opera?

    n.... d....

    YEAH! Good question. There are very few vocalists with such a strong tenor register. Even fewer who actually are able to use their tenor register.

  40. k.... ....

    Best Candlemass song ever. The bridge before the solo is epic in the true sense.

    k.... ....

    Better than Well Of Souls? The first time heard it, at the end, when the choir started, I got shivers. (I'm not talking about Gothic Stone, before the Well Of Souls)

  41. G.... C....

    Magistral, Grandioso e Classico.
    Os 3 itens que fazem de Tales Of Creation um dos trabalhos mais fodas desta banda. Formação monstruosa

  42. 5.... ....

    Memória

  43. S.... H....

    think about what GOD has given us...

  44. A.... ....

    Sooooo underrated

  45. �.... �....

    one of the best lead guitarists in metal

  46. M.... A....

    I love this band so much

  47. J.... H....

    Still have the cassette lol

  48. M.... ....

    this is timeless... THIS is everything..

  49. K.... N....

    Candlemass is that truly RARE band-a unique mix of power, melody and amazing vocals that set them light years apart from the mainstream. You just have to hear them once and the deal is sealed, you're a fan! It's why I've been listening to them since I first bought "Nightfall" back in 1987. Nothing like this has ever existed before and nothing like them will afterwards..

  50. D.... A....

    This isn't a song...this is a masterpiece

  51. M.... K....

    I have this album & nightfall in cassette format.messiah marcolin is the beast

  52. c.... j....

    The best voice of all times...in heavy doom metal.....!!!!!

  53. O.... G....

    A shapeless form
    A mindless soul
    Senseless with no control
    Eyes so closed
    A heart that sleeps
    A memory, a thought that is gone

    I am born
    Still I'm no more
    A dying illusion
    In the dream I am fading

    "Oh Lord! This must be heaven"
    tears in my eyes
    A sweet dream bathing in sunlight
    never to end

    Shapes of angels
    visions of grace
    Promised love and delight
    Let me be

    There at the edge of heaven
    where darkness begins
    Twilight was calling my name
    A cry in the night

    I felt a chill in my heart
    come to me
    Somebody danced on my grave
    Let me be

    At the edge of Heaven [x 2]

    A faceless shadow
    A blinded fool
    Lost in the twilight zone
    Dream or madness
    Heaven or hell
    A riddle the key to the spell

    I am born
    Still I'm no more
    A dying illusion
    In the dream I am fading

    [Repeat 5th Verse]

    [Repeat 6th Verse]

    At the edge of Heaven [x 4]

  54. v.... ....

    I'm addicted to this song!

    v.... ....

    ...and definitely not alone :}

  55. J.... B....

    This is my heritage. I was raised on it.

  57. A.... C....

    Awesome.

  58. D.... L....

    This is probably my fav track off this album. "Nightfall" and "ancient dreams" are my fav albums though.

  59. A.... S....

    Holy Fuck This Is Awesome Shit. Fucking Love It

  60. R.... B....

    Of the 1st three albums with Messiah on vocals, admittingly may not be the best of Leifs writing, but it's the best sounding album. Sounds less compressed, more natural. Ancient Dreams and Nightfall are both very quiet and compressed unnatural sounding

  61. A.... V....

    Uma das musicas mais fodas que já ouvi, no meu funeral quero candlemass!!!!! HAHAHAHA <3

    A.... V....

    Hail candlemass !!

  62. R.... d....

    Awesome.

  63. j.... r....

    fucking great

  64. T.... B....

    Don't know why, but this song brings up memories of my old loves. Sad and uplifting at the smae time, so joyous.

    T.... B....

    Thomas Benko candlemass always conjures up deep and intense thinking for me.

  65. l.... w....

    ah yeeeeeah the mighty tales of creation killer album the edge of heaven is a killer well written slab o meat indeed candlemass is killer this album totally stakes the listener

  66. S.... A....

    this is the true doom, best song.

  67. D.... R....

    Muito foda

  68. A.... A....

    Wonderful song. I don't know why, but the beginning reminds me of Nothing Else Matters.

    A.... A....

    Because its the same open minor chord. Except this came first. Way first.

    A.... A....

    This song is older

    A.... A....

    Both above me beat me to it. Nothing else matters was recorded in ‘91, this song was recorded in ‘89.

  69. A.... C....

    i want to get into the time machine , be in a candlemass concert first row and scream : " i am born , still i'm no more "

  70. C.... ....

    One of my fav Candlemass songs 🤘🏼❗

  71. m.... l....

    I am telling you. Lars Johansson's solo in this amazing song gives me the chills! It's fretboard dexterity at it's finest! It's epic and majestic and awesome AF!!! Fucking brilliant!

    m.... l....

    yeah lars is majestic and bewitched solo it's epic too

    m.... l....

    Lars is so underrated! But a mention should be made about the rhythm guitars behind his solos. Candlemass is imho unique in managing to pull off guitar solos with such simple, yet profound rhythm guitars.

    m.... l....

    Sends me into absolute raptures my friend! Makes my DNA helix dance.

  72. D.... 6....

    Godly perfection, one of the best bands ever created!

  73. A.... o....

    Oh Lord this song must be heaven..

    A.... o....

    This must be tears in my eyes

  74. A.... d....

    AWESOME

    A.... d....

    AWESOME

  75. C.... A....

    I might get harassed for saying this, but Ancient Dreams and Tales Of Creation have always been my two favorite Candlemass albums. I love Epicus and Nightfall, but those 3rd and 4th albums are brilliant in ways I can't fathom.

    C.... A....

    Noone can blame you. Because all those 4 albums are each one a masterpiece in its' own way.

    C.... A....

    Oh I completely concur! Simply musical genius.

    C.... A....

    @aldersmoke1 i like the whole epicness thing

    C.... A....

    I would be an Epicus and, Nightfall first then Tales followed by Ancient Dreams depending on the day of the week and the positioning of the moon and other such requisite factors but they are all absolute genre defining classics and you can't go wrong with any of them at all. Four great musical masterpieces is what they are really to be forever worshipped and admired...

    C.... A....

    @dierks67 Classics them all my friend...

  76. S.... M....

    this band is one of the most amazing feelings im able to get from music

    S.... M....

    Space Marine Yes creates a deep emotion I haven't found anywhere else, my favourite Candlemass song.

    S.... M....

    A feeling that replaces Joy, Evil.

  77. p.... ....

    Lars Johannson's solo in this song is otherworldly!! i love it!!

  78. p.... ....

    one person doesn't know what Heaven is...

  79. R.... C....

    how i love this magical-band!

    R.... C....

    me too!! too bad Messiah left the band.

    R.... C....

    +purseonal2010 :i agree with you! i hope for a new -reunion someday...

  80. U.... Y....

    I wish it would be heaven on earth for everyone

    U.... Y....

    it can be

    U.... Y....

    With music like this, we're one step closer

  81. a.... c....

    heaven on earth......
