Lacquer Lyrics

My voice channeling
A circuit's end
The house we lived in
Stricken with blight
Finding ways to kill the pain
Let the river run wild
Dreams shattering
Aerial sound

Scrape the lacquer
Can't you see it's all tarnished

Tried the poise
To radiate
Tried my words
To illustrate
Finding ways to end the pain
Let the river run wild
Dreams shattering
Fixing to die

Scrape the lacquer
Can't you see it's all tarnished

The levee breaking
I can't live to fight once more
The levee breaking
I can't live to fight once more

The road to the grave is straight as an arrow
I'm just staying around to sing your song, baby
The road to the grave is straight as an arrow
I'm just staying around to sing your song, baby

My voice travelling
Soaring bird above your head
The house we lived in
Ridden with disease

Scrape the lacquer
Can't you see, it's all tarnished

The levee breaking I can't live to fight once more
The levee breaking I can't live to fight once more

The road to the grave is straight as an arrow
I'm just staying around to sing your song, baby
The road to the grave is straight as an arrow
I'm just staying around to sing your song, baby

Cover art for Lacquer  lyrics by Katatonia

I think this is about how we can't dwell on the past & any darkness we continue to drown ourselves in. We need to escape from the clutches of our own atrophy before it spells our own doom.
