lyrics

Once was a clear path
Now a tangle of doubts and needs
A road to nowhere
A way to bittersweet lies
Forging with conviction
Into blunt disillusion
Astray, lost, bound for desolation

All life is ending now
I am drawn into the light
Let’s leave - let’s dream until the end of time

Lead me to pastures grey
Where the grass withers
Let me rest for a while
Take me to pastures grey
I’ll sleep, I’ll dream I’m in a better place

Will I ever sleep again?

With black as my light
I wind down the wordless pat
Once again, the cross I bear
Is made of guilt and contrition
Ghosts of the past will try to bring me back
Try to hold onto my pride
My lies I now deny

All life is ending now
I am drawn into the light
Let’s leave - let’s dream until the end of time

Lead me to pastures grey
Where the grass withers
Let me rest for a while
Take me to pastures grey
I’ll sleep, I’ll dream I’m in a better place

Will I find peace when my breath fails?
Will I find shelter when all is turned to ash?
What’s left for me in the last hours of night
But a thirst for guilt when dawn comes at last?

Lead me to pastures grey
Where the grass withers
Let me rest for a while
Take me to pastures grey
I’ll sleep, I’ll dream I’m in a better place

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
