Hope
By The Anathema

Grown from seeds of sin
thralled by His carnal bliss
depraved by hunger for cruelty
and driven by the lusts of the flesh
we endlessly seek eternal love

the passion that binds lonely hearts
rebirth of faded emotions
hope that battles the coldness inside
the spirit of the meek, the righteous,
the artist, and the blind dreamer

In the end, dreams are never fulfilled
tranquillity only comforts the insane
Life and Death remain merciless
and even the purest of souls
is devoured by fangs of destiny
