Cold Embrace Lyrics by Testament

Dark Roots of Earth

2012

[Verse 1]
There was a sign on an ancient veil
A dream that never really was
She only ever seemed to hope for a world
So surreal to the touch
She doesn't want to wake, she only wants to sleep
Afraid of what they seek and where she's been
When she awakes, she bends to her knees to pray
Praying for the secret to be safe, yeah

[Bridge]
Come take my hand
Follow the path to infinity
Come take my hand
Trapped in the dark for eternity
Come take my hand

[Verse 2]
After all when the kingdom falls
Her walls are shattered from within
She tries to flee but she's trapped in this curse
Waiting for the cycle to begin
She doesn't want to wake from her eternal sleep
Afraid of what they know and where she is
She doesn't follow faith, she's stuck in her belief
Sorrow is the color of her dream, yeah

[Pre-Chorus]
Long ago, when she first opened her eyes
There's no tomorrow
The sun will never shine, no
The sun will never shine, yeah

[Chorus]
The sun will never shine on you
Daylight blinds your way
The sun will never shine through you
Now accept this cold embrace

[Bridge]
Come take my hand
Follow the path to infinity
Come take my hand
See everything that you want to see
Come take my hand
Find everything that you sought to seek
Come take my hand
Trading your life for immortality
Come take my hand

[Guitar Solo]

[Pre-Chorus]
Long ago, when she first opened her eyes
There's no tomorrow
The sun will never shine, no
The sun will never shine, yeah

[Chorus]
The sun will never shine on you
Daylight blinds your way
There sun will never, ever shine on you
No, the sun will never shine
