Stefan Rune Olsson - Antagony Lyrics

In the absence of light - Neatly devouring
On a windswept plain - Dark eyes glowering
In the hall of saints - Demons towering
This is the state of my soul

In a shrouded wood - Wildcats howling
In a fractured crypt - Spirits prowling
In a tainted fount - Waters fouling
This is the fate of my soul

This is the shame, the pain and the agony
This is the price I pay
This is the self against self antagony
That tears me apart day to day

Antagony - Leave me alone!
Antagony - I'm not your throne
Antagony - Antagony
Set me free - Antagony

In the light of sun - Dark foreboding
In the temple nave - Guilt reloading
In a lover's embrace - Worries goading
This is the state of my soul

In a blessed glen - Phantoms haunting
In a sacred spring - Devils taunting
In the hallowed glade - Legions wanting
This is the weight of my soul

This is the shame, the pain and the agony
This is the price that I pay
This is the self against self antagony
That tears me apart day to day

Antagony - Leave me alone!
Antagony - I'm not your throne
Antagony - Antagony
Set me free - Antagony

Wretched mean goddess
I know you far too well
Wicked chronic obsession
You people my personal hell
You're there when I look in the mirror
You're me but you're someone else
You beat and you flog and you whip me
And no one can see the welts

This is the shame, the pain and the agony
This is the price I pay
This is the self against self antagony
That tears me apart day to day

Antagony - Leave me alone!
Antagony - I'm not your throne
Antagony - Antagony
Set me free - Antagony
