Fields of Desolation ’99 Songtext
von Arch Enemy

On the fields of desolation
We are all alone
Crying in each others arms
In fear of the unknown
Feelings of uncertainty
We are all doomed
To live in solitude
And never ending gloom

On the fields of desolation
Eternal life or termination

Why won′t you cover me?
I need your sanctuary
This sea I'm drowning in
Might be where the end begins


In times of grief and sadness
We′re searching for the light
Seek for a place of safety
Seek for a place to hide
God turned his back on man
In divine resignation
Torn between two believes
Eternal life or termination?

On the fields of desolation
Eternal life or termination

Why won't you cover me?
I need your sanctuary
This sea I'm drowning in
Might be where the end begins

As we drown in darkness
Weak and depraved
On our final journey
Too late to be saved
We′ve gone through places
Where the cold winds blow
Is this the end of it all?
I don′t know, I don't know

On the fields of desolation
Eternal life or termination


Why won′t you cover me?
I need your sanctuary
This sea I'm drowning in
Might be where the end begins
