Lyrics to Argent Moon [EP 2021] by Insomnium

Tracklist: 01. The Conjurer Do you remember? How we watched the moon Counted all the shimmering stars Inhaled the night Do you still remember? Do you even care? Words spoken in the darkness And the promise made Do you remember at all? How we two made the winds rise We could walk in each other's dreams Run the woods in wolf's skin But I remember Still I remember You made thе vows to return to me On this shore by thе silent sea Below the argent moon And longing still it holds me And yearning still it reigns For all this life I've waited On this blackened shore And longing still it holds me tight And yearning still prevails For all this life I've waited you Below the argent moon And I know it in my heart You will never come to me By the side of someone else You will watch the gleaming skies I shall tear down all the stars Steal the moon from heaven's arms They will never shine upon your path As you roam the endless night If I can't share the moon with you Then no one will And longing still it holds me And yearning still it reigns For all this life I've waited On this blackened shore And longing still it holds me tight And yearning still prevails For still I wait to hear your voice Below the empty skies Nevermore shall we walk again Below the argent moon 02. The Reticent I keep losing track of time My sense of self where I belong I keep falling deeper into the hole Disconnected, all alone Through it all, we love, we fall We hope, we fear, we fight, we crawl Against it all, wilful and strong Until the waves take us, take us home My mind is racing, lost train of thought Eyes unfocused, tired of this world These walls will collapse, wash out to the sea And I'll float along, let the stream carry me Through it all, we love, we fall We hope, we fear, we fight, we crawl Against it all, wilful and strong Until the waves take us, take us home Through it all, we love, we fall We hope, we fear, we fight, we crawl 03. The Antagonist Once upon a time When the years flew brightly by You held my hand through the night You held my heart Manifold is the misery now And the joys turned to woe Alone in this time-eaten tower I wait for the dawn I listen, as if in a dream The wail of the winds But no one calls my name any more For no one dares No song will resound No wail will rise No cry will be heard When curtain falls Stars look down on me From their thrones in the dark heavens Do they see inside my soul Blackness there, nothing more? How did I become this man When I fell from grace The one they all spite and fear? The one you shun? No song will resound No wail will rise No cry will be heard When curtain falls No tears will be shed No weepers on the grave No stone to recall my name When I leave this world And when they look back to these times And write down this tale How will they remember my part? How will they retell? The tyrant and the iron crown Old man with no soul The shadow they dread and abhor Not the hero of the play No song resounds No wail will rise No tear will flow When curtain falls No tears will be shed for me No weepers to wail on my grave No headstone to recall my name When I leave this world 04. The Wanderer Song of the sirens, brings me no joy Caress of a maiden, leaves me hollow And the night slowly turns Towards the daybreak This crown on my forehead, feels like a burden These golden pendants, now weigh down my neck And the wine in my mouth Will taste like ashes And still I roam With broken knees I wander And still I roam on and on Till the end of days I sold my poor soul, to unfold the secrets I lost my poor soul, to possess the riches And still I craved for more and more To satisfy my hunger I'm doomed to wander the earth Cursed to roam these lands Until the heavens die Till the seven seas will boil I'm doomed to wander the earth Cursed to roam these lands Until the sun has waned Till I find my wretched soul Everyone I've ever loved is long since gone Cruel are the years that pass On this forlorn road I hear the Pale Rider scoffing at my throes For Death will never touch me No redemption till I find my blackened soul For Death will never touch me Until I find my poor soul Death won't take me
