Deliverance Lyrics by Opeth

Deliverance

2002

[Instrumental Intro]

Floating on mist
Crept up the caverns of my brain
Received no warning
From nothing to a life code

[Instrumental Break]

Walk with me
You'll never leave
Wait to see your spirit free

Tell me how your heart's in need
As I drown you in the sea

[Instrumental Break]

Unwinding snares of distrust
Your wrist in my fast grip
Look me in the eye
I'm clear
This is your time
Face down beneath the waterline
Gazing into the deep

[Guitar Solo]

From love to death
In a time span of seconds
Oblivious to regret
Pushed into belief
In liquid cellophane
Gasping for air
Mercy in my eyes
Is the shade of the night
Face down beneath the waterline
Gazing into the deep

[Instrumental Break]

The piercing sounds you make
Soaring higher, higher now
And once left in my wake
Your memory is nothing but the scars on me

[Instrumental Break]

All over now
Forgotten why I needed this
Standing down
Disappear into the obscure
Resting days
Waiting for new disease
Biding time
Locked inside insanity

It always burns within
The downward spiral never ends
When driven into sin
Your salvation's found in a sinner's deed

All over now
Forgotten why I needed this
Standing down
Disappear into the obscure
Resting days
Waiting for new disease
Biding time
Locked inside insanity

The devil guides the way
Tells me what to say
Pours himself inside
And snuffs the final light

[Guitar Solo]

Deliverance
Thrown back at me
Deliverance
Laughing at me
Deliverance
Thrown back at me
Deliverance
Laughing at me

[Instrumental Outro]
