Swallow The Sun - 7 Hours Late lyrics

Artist: Swallow The Sun

album: Songs from the North I, II & III


Forgive me father
I was seven hours late
And now you're gone
But I made it next to you, as I promised
Dressed you for your last journey
I'm dead to you now
Still holding the words that were left unsaid

Couldn't burden you wish the sorrows
That crushed my chest
Couldn't find the right time to share those words
Why the days passed away

I'm dead to you now, and will be
Until my own heart sees the fallen veil of night
Until the curtains open for me
To walk the same moonlit silver trail
I always will be seven hours late
Carrying the pain of knowing, that you never knew
Why we both went through the days apart
But with the same shadows in our hearts
I can't never tell you why I wasn't there
Until they bury me in the same soil
Until we meet again, I will be seven hours late

These rooms of shadows
Echoes on these walls

This empire of loneliness

Still feeling the presence
Your soul still lingering here for a while
And the dark that pours in through the night-side window
And the light that fades into the woods

Like fireflies dancing between the rusted trees
The light that escaped from my side
Glowing in the woods
Waving its last goodbye until it's gone
And then it's dark
