Shifts Songtext
von Katatonia

Spiralling nights in the void
Weathered coat and a dagger
If I dream back my youth
I can still hear you sing
A voice that will die on a mountain

And I fear
That I′ve stayed here
Just a little too long

I had to go where you couldn't follow
In my weariness
I still hear you singing in my mind
And all the of fortunes they took away

The shifting earth beneath us (nothing to observe)
The clouds at our feet (nothing to observe)
The sun was made of a jewel (nothing to observe)
When at night it did sleep, nothing to observe


Cast in a trench of fire
I can see the sky is a ceiling
And when my heart dies down
I am long gone
On the field of summer′s green
Away from fall and famine

In my weariness
I still hear you singing in my mind
(And all the fortunes they took away)

The shifting earth beneath us (nothing to observe)
The clouds at our feet (nothing to observe)
The sun was made of a jewel (nothing to observe)
When at night it did sleep

I'm in every season
The one you have always known
Life did not reward you
So find your way to the river and let go

The shifting earth beneath us (nothing to observe)
The clouds at our feet (nothing to observe)
The sun was made of a jewel (nothing to observe)
When at night it did sleep, nothing to observe

The shifting earth beneath us (nothing to observe)
The clouds at our feet (nothing to observe)
The sun was made of a jewel (nothing to observe)
When at night it did sleep
