Ante Scriptum: Um novo ano passado com dores de dentes na cama até de madrugada e a levantar cedo para trabalhar no dia primeiro, um começo muito gótico diria.
Mas como as coisas estão boas e calmas e eu estou madurinha e doce e risonha, celebremos o começo do novo ano com uma canção bem alegre e festiva.
Ali junto junto dos velhos Anathema, Lacrimas Profundere, eternos My Dying Bride, os Suecos Draconian figuram no panteão de bandas que sabem enlaçar toda a tonalidade metaleira num universo profundamente gótico.
Death, Come Near Me
By day I sleep, at night I weep!
O Death, come near me!
Be the one, for me, be the one, the one, who stays.
My rivers, are frozen, and mischosen,
and the shadows, around me, sickens my heart.
O Death, come near me,
and stay, by my side. Hear my silent, my silent cry!
In sadness, I'm veiled, to the cross, I am nailed,
and the pain, around me, freezes my world.
My cold world...
In life, I've failed, for years, I've wailed.
Frozen in time...
left behind...
The rapture, of grief, is all, to find...
The rapture, of grief, is all!
Behind the shadow of life, the lost hopes are grieving.
I seek the night, and hope to find love.
So I drown in the silence of life's short eternity.
The tears fills the void in my heart, astray...
Embrace me now, delightful ease!
Give me a world of wondrous peace!
Calm the desperate scream in my heart!
O Death, come near me,
save me...
from this empty, cold, world!
O Life, you have killed me,
so spare me, from, this cauldron, of misery!
In life, I cry, away, I fly.
Chosen, to fall, within, these walls.
The rapture, of grief, is all, to find...
The rapture, of grief, is all!
Oh, shed a tear for the loss, of innocence,
for the forsaken spirits who aches... in us.
Cry for the heart who surrenders to pain,
for the solitude of those, left, behind!
Behold the pain and sorrow of the world,
dream of a place away from this nightmare.
Give us love and unity, under the heart of night.
O Death, come near us, and give us life!
