HIM (His Infernal Majesty) - The Path Lyrics

There is no turning back from this unending path of mine
serpent turning back it stands before my eyes
to hell and back it will lead me once more
it's all I have as i stumble in and out of grace

i walk through the gardens of dying lights
and cross over rivers deep and dark as the night
searching for reasons why time passes by

With every step I take the less I know myself
and every vow I break on my way towards your heart
countless times I've prayed for forgiveness
but God just laughed at my face
and this path remains
leading me into solitude zones

I seek through the darkness my way back home
the journey seems endless but I'll carry on
the shadows will rise and day will fall
and a night turns in dawn

and after the tears this smile all angels grieve with an envious song
when looking into strangers eyes
and I know where I belong

i walk through the gardens of dying lights
and cross over rivers deep and dark as the night
searching for reasons why time passes by

I seek through the darkness my way back home
the journey seems endless but I'll carry on
the shadows will rise and day will fall
and a night turns in dawn
