Soilwork

The Akuma Afterglow Lyrics

Where is it all? Where am I?

Only present to bleed

Only present to die

Only scratching the joy

Yet filled with desire

I'll be turning my head off...

I've made ways to forgive

I've made ways to forget

Ceasing the hours

Made a friend I can reach

Can you hear how it's calling?

I'll make sure it's not falling

How long will I

Turn myself around this time

Can I revive?

[Chorus]

And then it came

Blood rushing straight

Through the eyes of pain

Moving up

Getting sane

It feels the same

But time takes a toll

On this buried flame

Lift me up

Say my name

I was longing to feel it

Crying for sleep

Finding the essence

Burned by the heat

Given the answer

Given the cause

Suddenly seeing

It was lost when I called

I'm crashing down

(Nothing to keep)

Without a sound

(I wed the weak)

When it turns out the enemy's loose

At the back of my mind it is twisting the truth

How long will I

Turn myself around this time

Can I revive?

[Chorus]

[Solo: Wichers & Coudret]

The feeling surrounds me

Bigger than pain

Awaken by loss

Engaged to maintain

It might switch for all I know

I'll let it drown in the afterglow

[Chorus]
