Brave
If you didn't know all the moments when I lose myself I would tell the world I'm
catching flies by now speaking to someone breaking the windows this house is dead the sound
of falling when the pictures are moving between the memories dead in time brave try the
meaning of loss I know your smile is deadly at this point wherever you are I am not if you
didn't know all the moments when I lose myself I would tell the world I guess I should know
the limits of the world there are moments I find myself not breathing at all
Murder
Fallen idol hanged man great winds rides the mill further into the vast limits do not
exist five day pain closer now than ever birds escape mute flock of winds one with weather
sight is getting dim
Day
Grey park look the same and the days are pale I never thought it would rain this way I
should be knowing that it used to be me let's stay here for a while is something gonna happen
today your smile has decayed it will never be the same I never thought I would laugh again I
should be knowing this it used to be me let's stay here for a while is something gonna happen
today now it's dark and you're colder now it's dark and I'm older now it's dark and you're
colder and you tell me my parks are grey let's stay here for a while is something gonna happen
today grey park look the same all the days are pale I never thought it would rain this way I
should be knowing that it used to be me let's stay here for a while is something gonna happen
today
Rainroom
We saw it all pass by and you went by and I can't control anything when you said that
life can't be what you want and I really want everything when I prey when I believe I saw it end
long before it ended life itself turned pale and ended I saw you cry out acres of your image life
itself does not heal me like a slow scenery I'm losing all my faith in lifeless motion you're
walking like you're dead we saw it all pass by and you went by and I can't control anything
when you said that life can't be what you want and I really want everything
12
Black theatre of love violet dancers cast their blood the moon gave me flowers for funerals to
come 12 shapes bow before her I am still one of them 12 morbid ways to die her beauty scares
me I'm falling deeper no more pain to feel now touch the silence afraid of hell black theatre
violet dancers drink my blood the moon gave me flowers for funerals to come I cannot breathe I
am losing life the moon paints the skyline blue she died so beautyful
Endtime
Now fall into a vacant sphere pierced by darkness they called it death and surrounded
me with sleep they lost the earth in fire waved it into a sea this is not what you saw the earth in
fire now fall into a vacant sphere pierced by darkness they called it death and surrounded me
with sleep

Again Katatonia's music style is hard to define, though it has changed a lot since earlier releases. It's now some cool kind of mixture between Paradise Lost in the 'Gothic' days and Opeth. The reason it sometimes sounds a bit like Opeth of course is because the singer of Opeth sings on this album. Anyways, this is one of the best black doom albums I've heard lately
