lyrics

The Final Rest

Once more I wake up
In the dead of the night
Nightmares that I have known for too long

I long for an escape
Far from these lands
Were words have lost all their meaning

The colour of skies
The smell of the grass
In this place for me is far too well known

Where will I find a place to rest?
What more can I give to redeem my past?
Failures I bear in my soul like a cross of guilt

Shall I give all that I’m left?
Embrace the fate of he who was born too late

So come claim my life and grant me my final rest
I am done with these failures (I’m done with these failures)
Now help me ease the pain
Erase my too many mistakes, let me start anew
From birth til death, from death til birth
I shall now begin my journey home

For death is a home
For all those who’re lost
Redemption to find in nothingness
From north to south
From east to west
No land for me is far enough

I stride forward
From a cold stony shore to a colder ocean
I wade then swim
Then let myself into the deep

Undoubted path
The end will make my wrongs alright

So come!
Come claim my life and grant me my final rest
I am done with these failures (I’m done with these failures)
Now help me ease the pain
Rise!
Freezing waters, hold me in your embrace
I commit myself to the deep
To your arms…

And as I sink
I become the darkness
I choose the sea to be my grave
My eyes are closing
I become nothingness
Let’s dive into the waters to die
Far from these lands I die!

Come claim!
Come claim my life and grant me my final rest
I am done with these failures (I’m done with these failures)
Now help me ease the pain
Rise!
Freezing waters, hold me in your embrace
I commit myself to the deep
To your arms so cold
At last
I have found a piece of serenity
From numb to feelingless
From life to death
Into nothingness
I have found my peace
Waters in my lungs
Help me find my peace…

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
