Lethe Lyrics

Artist: Dark Tranquillity
Album: The Gallery

Give me the drink of the fluid
That disintegrates
And lend me the sweet balm and blessing
Of forgetfulness, empty and strong
Lethe
Oh, lethe

Hold me near, unravel the stars
As I speed through the heavens
Speed through the night
For you are my blade and my rope
You are my lethe
You are my all

In currents of cobalt
You storm through my heart
To sever, to puncture
The memories that burn
Let sweep through the arteries
In sharp stabs of pain
Your talon-like fingers to kill me again

Steal me, invade me and charge me again
For I burn and I shudder
Burn with each movement of

So, cleansed through a floodlight
I appear, renewed and reforged
Caressed by the sweet balm and blessing
Of forgetfulness, empty and strong
Lethe

Hold me near, my one friend and guide
As I drown through your fingers
Drown through your love
For you are the life I hate
You are my

Drag me down, in passionate sighs
With the ocean above me
And flames in my eyes
And grant me a life I can live
Without
Take me away

From the life that I hate

this is the best song i have ever listened

by Mysecret on 2/11/2010 12:33am
Lethe also means a state of oblivion, like being completely dissolved in thought. I think that's what they refer to altough that river in the kingdom of Hades (if i got it right) would make sense if you view the lyrics as being about alcohol or drugs.

This is the most EPIC and Emotional song that anyone ever ever ever Created.

This is the most beautiful song that i've ever heard. This song neither about love or drugs, but instead about all of lifes troubles...and how they'll be taken away...

by nemesis on 6/25/2010 9:59am
you were my lethe, you were my all.

by dustman on 7/7/2010 12:23pm
as u all say... DT has crossed all the way through life to release such epic. But to tell you that if lethe runs in hades then we can see hades eveyday here.. That's why they r askin for lethe to take him away! They speed to heaven when they speed to the night.

Mikael said on a live show that this song is one of their few drinking songs, so this tells about alcohol.
