Aceldama - Terminal Breath Lyrics

(Lyrics: Patrik Sporrong)

What happened to peace? Hell’s released
Plutonic rage, the terminage
Reign of terror, age of terror
You’re alone
Panic!
Grief!
Family-all your friends,
All you knew, vaporized!

radiation!
Must be everywhere…
I feel OK
So far…

Bodies everywhere, you scream but only
Silence answers… not a sound
Try to tell yourself it’s not real,
They wouldn’t... couldn’t… could they?
Blinded by despair, where can you find
Shelter from the acid rain?

You didn’t care about the arms race
Or whether the superpowers would step
Into any of the current disputes
You only watched sport on your TV
Never news!
Being kept by the government you only
Cared about where your next beer was
Coming from
Suddenly you’re sick! You can’t digest
Or overcome this lethargy
Suppurating sores spread painfully,
There’s more of them daily
No medicine now – you’ll heal or die
From radiation sickness

As death draws near
Confront your fear
Anytime
Could be your terminal breath

As death draws near
Confront your fear
Anytime
Could be your terminal breath

Losing your mind
You see things in a new way
Losing your grip
Your reason is carried away

Emerging from malaise, you came
So close to death, to the universe
Images remain from another life
Another time
Movement in the rocks! I’m not
Alone-or just imagination!
