Swallow The Sun - The Empty Skies Lyrics

Saw them with Katatonia twice years ago . The answer is YES!

04:12-------there goes the trip!

This song speaks volumes.

that jam at 5:18...

SWALLOW THE SUN - THE EMPTY SKIES

The dead walk
In the silent world
Oh, how the dead talk
With empty words

Redemption
By thought injection
And the dead march
To the voice of deception

This is now a new beginning
There will be no creation from chaos
No light at the end
Just a faint glimpse of the forgotten

Screaming
Overcome by silence
Suffocated
By the unspoken

And the dead walk
With no fear of dying
And the dead fall
With the horrors of living

Murky demented eyes
Stare at the empty skies
Desperately searching for something
Something that once was there

It's too late for salvation
While falling to oblivion
We are doomed to stagnation
To witness the inverse creation

one of the best pieces ever heard

GREAT!!
THIS IS THE MUSIC OF LIFE, OF HOPE , OF ETERNITY.
GREAT TRACK. GREAT JOB BY THE BAND.

Agree totally
no other music bleeds like metal .

This is so silent violence and beatiful massacre in together. I don't know who could compose more beautiful horror of this kind better than Swallow the Sun.

ehhhhhh magari!!!!

@realpurcello i migliori del genere Death/Doom Metal!!! \m/

@killmylife88 Ehehehe... anche io. E' uno dei miei gruppi preferiti. Nel loro genere poi non hanno proprio rivali.

@realpurcello Io li amo :)

@killmylife88 Sono spettacolari gli Swallow the sun, vero? :-)

Mi piace Mi piace Mi piace Mi piace Mi piace Mi piace Mi piace :D

02:14 <3

This one takes my back 4 years to a darker part of my life... This band is sacred for me, this one is still really helpful. Indeed one of their best.

@Chamenful
No need, sir.
Actually, there is nothing to proove in there, it's just an assumption of me, my totally subjective opinion.

@Chamenful
That would be disrespectful

I fucking love the way this song progresses. I really hated the transition from the intro to the first verse the first time I heard it, but I can see completely why it is done that way. Absolutely masterful songwriting.

@Malda123 LOL.... my envy of you now is much much much more. :p

@realpurcello the ticket is smilin on me from shelf

@realpurcello dont worry, one day ull by your own ticket :D

@Malda123 : Ok, I feel officially envy you. :)

5.12 in prague, goin to buy the ticket on monday :D

A mio avviso è il classico gruppo che va ascoltato per album dall'inizio alla fine. Se ascolti pezzi singoli non rendono come devono. Però alla fine è anche questione di gusti... e guai se nn fosse così. :)

Visti all'alcatraz dal vivo. Onesti, come guest sono passabili, due, tre canzoni avevano un bel tiro, le altre risultavano essere troppo piatte e simili tra loro.

Gli Swallow the Sun, nel loro genere, sono i migliori in assouto. Ascolta Plague Of Butterlfies, e poi mi dici che ne pensi! ;)

Going to see them in milan with katatonia... i dont know this band, i only listen to the song the morning never came but... they are quite cool and as opener of katatonia they are perfect.

nice nice and nice
i think

summerbreeze2010!!!!

15. 12. in Bratislava...got prepaid ticket...wheeeey!

Yeah... but only single song by Swallow the sun is a great...great song. ;)

i think its one of the best songs by swallow the sun.

great song

This is my favourite song by Swallow the sun!

I am not one of those that are totally freaking out on metal music performances....but....if I was a part of performance when swallow the sun will play this song...I will freak out totally, this song has so good tone, I love it!
