Shrines Lyrics by Paradise Lost

Medusa

2017

[Verse 1]
Fearless ones, wash away the years
Fearless ones, wash away the pain, the tears
Can’t unload the lows
In the shadow of a dying light
Can’t unload the lows
In the fear of a dying light

[Chorus]
Dread through centuries shrines
A cold descent of our minds
In abject misery, aligning stars fall
Dread through the centuries shrines
A coldness spreading through time
In abject misery, enduring scars form

[Verse 2]
Healing sun shelter from release
Grieving, none, crushing waves of long deceit
Can’t unload the lows
In the shadow of a dying light
Can’t unload the lows
In the fear of a dying light

[Chorus]
Dread through centuries shrines
A slow descent of our lives
In abject misery, aligning stars fall
Dread through the centuries shrines
A coldness spreading through time
In abject misery, enduring scars form
Enduring scars form

[Chorus]
Dread through centuries shrines
A cold descent of our lives
In abject misery, aligning stars fall
Dread through the centuries shrines
A coldness spreading through time
In abject misery, enduring scars form

[Outro]
In abject misery, enduring scars form
In abject misery, enduring scars form
