Opeth - Masters Apprentice LYRICS

Master apprentices



-



There is a voice calling for me

There is a light coming down on me

There is a doubt that is clearing

There is a day that is dawning

There is a wound that is healing

There is a season waiting for me

There is a road that is turning

There is a fire still burning



A sickness in me

Constant pace towards the end

The need is stronger

This time the need is deeper



There is a peace I am searching

There is a freedom I'm depending on

There is a pain that's never ending

There is a rain falling only on me

There is a dream I am living

There is a life I'm dreaming of

There is a death I'm awaiting

There is a home I am deserting



I hold my breath in wait

Only moments remain

Movement for departed hope

Effect for absent friends



Sever the faith from my body

Leave me begging for more

Take what I have and deliver me

Into everlasting sleep



Soothing trance

Colours fade

And disappear

Ethereal light

Showing me what I can do without



In a motionless scene

There is only me

I take what I can

Controlling you to get ahead



Fading away

And leaving

Long for sleep

Closer now

Lead the way into death



Every wretched dream

I've left behind

Every waking hour

I lie in wait



Sucked inside by will

Gone into the flood

All my questions unfurled

As I was put to the test



Once I'm below there's no turning back



Plunging into the deepest void

Departed shell left drained behind



Pacing roads unknown

Searching for a new home

Desert in my eye

Barren lands inside
