Haken - Nightingale Lyrics

[Intro][Verse 1]No perception of passing timeThe words struggle to escape her mindNew perspectives to redefineBirdsong awakens her from the stormShuffle the sequence of old paradigmsThe rhyme and metre still misalignedAnother page lay burning in the fireThe ink and the feather hold their secrets well[Pre-Chorus]Nightingale, I (Bell, toll mе back into my soul)Dream in daylight[Chorus]One fateful night, unspokеn bindsUnravelled, I'm ever of the chosenMy signal fire still burning, IFeel like I'm guided by my inner totem[Verse 2]Poetic justice arriving after allWhen characters and places start to formA sullen emperor endures his requiemCan he live with this lament?A mechanical animal, a dangerous gameThat clockwork song it sings will send you to your graveNow heed the nightingale's cautionary taleAway, away, for I will fly to thee[Chorus]One fateful night, unspoken bindsUnravelled, I'm ever of the chosenMy signal fire still burning, IFeel like I'm guided by my inner totemOne fateful night, unspoken bindsUnravelled, I'm ever of the chosenMy signal fire still burning, IFeel like I'm guided by the totem inside[Instrumental Break][Bridge]Dig in with your clawsI push my talons into your skinHeal me with your songYou are forgiven for all your sinsDig in with your clawsSleep now in blissful anaesthesiaHeal me with your songStill no perception of passing[Pre-Chorus]Nightingale, IDream in daylightNightingale mineSee me take flight[Chorus]One fateful nightUnspoken binds unravel me (Unravel me)My signal fire still burning, IFeel like I'm guided by the totemOne fateful night (We'll gather as the birdsong plays)Unspoken binds unravel me (Unravel me)My signal fire still burning, I (The calling of the nightingale)Feel like I'm guided by the totem[Outro]
