Katatonia – Shifts Lyrics 6 years ago
Another amazing song from "The Fall Of Hearts". This one has a rather romantic feel to it, the instrumental gives the song a "slow dance of two lovers in the night" type of feel, in my opinion at least. In that sense, it is rather beautiful. The lyrics however, seem to separate the lovers, in a way that the narrator/his lover ended the romantic relationship with his lover/the narrator because of differences in what they as individuals desired in life ("...I had to go where you couldn't follow...", "a weathered coat and a dagger..."). The narrator still remembers and longs for the one he (was) left (by) ("...in my weariness, I still hear you singing in my mind...", "...nothing to observe...").

Katatonia – Sanction Lyrics 7 years ago
Such an amazing song!! Why is no one talking about it?? Personally, I find it to be the best song on the album.
In regards to the interpretation of the lyrics, I agree with ETOS; the narrator is pretty clear, it's about a failed relationship or a failed relationship to be.

Katatonia – Sold Heart Lyrics 7 years ago
It appears as if the narrator had been heartbroken, hence why he "sold" his heart; he will not be needing it because he's unable to love again after he was left by the one he loved.
