Elysian Woes

Elysian Woes - Opeth

What is left when the morning comes

Is the memory of a future

And when my plight is done

There is nothing left to hold on to

There were friends waiting at my door

They are gone now

For the year is new

I stuck by my word

And when the rains came

Made it true and pure

To dissolve the hurt

Are we nursing destruction

Pursuing a dream we once had

Was it our intention

To follow this road 'til the end

Even if the end is a world of sorrow

There is a bond between us

Even if it's frayed it is unbreakable

So I come for you always

And I welcome pain

For a second of belonging somewhere

There were times when I lost my way

With hope pouring from my soul

In a shelter from the sun

I don't want to bare my scars for you

I don't want to bare my scars for you

I don't want to bare my scars for you
