Serenity (feat. Madeleine Liljestam)

Within me I feel so serene. A sensation like apathy. Yet a contrast in every way. I went into the black. Never thought on coming back. And now it has changed me Forevermore My world has seen a new dawn A sense of harmony and bliss Now nothing will or can destroy me. We'll walk the road less travelled. Reaching a state of calm, tranquility. As snow falls on a winter's night Reliving a spring of placidity Beauty in the changeful seasons. But my heart craves more! Will we weather all storms? Joy was deemed to elude me Now that it fills me I start to doubt it. Could I breathe without the air you give me? Or am I now complete, a whole? I feel my blood start to simmer inside The gates have now opened up for me No void will ever crack this will. Steadfast we stand. Exalted in Serenity. Valiantly prevailing in a landscape so gray Winters and death have tolled us with pain Taking command and forcing our hands To follow the path to Serenity. As a sovereign of the mind I can feel this creation becoming me Is this horror a fear of the future Or something darker, something more. Could one hone their art in isolation Do I need solace for my passion I feel my blood start to simmer inside The gates have now opened up to me No void will ever crack this will. Steadfast we stand. Exalted in Serenity. Valiantly prevailing in a landscape so gray Winters and death has tolled us with pain Taking command and forcing our hands To follow the path to Serenity. I close my eyes. Diving into the current. Unexplored motions drives me forward. With you, I swim calmly ever more. But now I hold my breath.
