Katatonia Idle Blood

You there, the bringer of my despair
You are stagnation of hope and will
Oh, you personify loss and remorse
And you hide until my fear reappear

The love for life once bright
A burning fuse the only flame I have
Fate's spiral down this curve
The seed's growing my misery

These wounds kill time
My struggle sublime
Idle the blood, black state of mind
All dreams left behind

You claim to be my long, absent friend
You are the cancer that just moved in
You come with the dark night of the soul
But I'm turning my back on you, you know I do

The love for life once bright
A burning fuse, the only flame I have
Fate's spiral down this curve
The seed's growing my misery

These wounds kill time
My struggle sublime
Idle the blood, black state of mind
All dreams left behind

Idle the blood
The black state of mind
All my dreams left behind

Idle the blood
Ooh, the black state of mind
All my dreams left behind
