lyrics

If you had a gun would you shoot me in the face?
If you had my life would you trade it for free?
If you had the choice, would you blow away my past
Burn the bridges, make it right again?

With solid blocks I assemble a monument of smoke
Born to try, doomed to fail
With burning sands I shape my dreams away
Born to try, dying to see you fail

With every choice, a new dead-end
Can you decipher this map better than I did?
Can you find the exit when all the doors were locked for me?

If you had the fuel, would you try to burn your wings?
Escape a path drawn with a rusty blade?
If you had my scars, would you help them heal?
Or let the days gush like rivers red?
If you could see right through me, damn sure you get blind
If you had my strength
Do you really think you could hold on to what’s already gone?

With every choice, a new dead-end
Can you decipher this map better than I did?
Can you find the exit when all the doors were locked for me?

With solid blocks I assemble a monument of smoke
Born to try, doomed to fail and start it all again
With burning sands I shape my dreams away
Born to try and fail, dying to see you try again

With every choice, a new dead-end
Can you decipher this map better than I did?
Can you find the exit when all the doors were locked for me?
With every path, a million doubts
Will you walk the maze longer than I have?
Will you find the exit?
Will you help me through?

Path of Desolation image

Path of Desolation Lausanne, Switzerland

Long is the path to desolation and enlightnement. And lo! How much distance was covered by Swiss metallers PATH OF DESOLATION since their 2014 EP. Sharp riffs, melancholic melodies
and powerful vocals are the trademark behind these
gems of melodic death metal, evoking at times Dark Tranquility, In Flames or Insomnium. ... more
