The Last Call

It's nothing more than a song .. but I guess the lyricist is just brilliant ;) Morten Veland , ex-Tristania, has composed all the songs. In wikipedia, they describe the characteristic of their lyrics like this "The lyrics are concerned with human existence, emotion, and mental states".

The last call describes about broken-heart. Lover who has been betrayed by his/her love one. The song is the first song in their latest album, Nine Destinies and a Downfall.

However, hardnose sirenia fans don't seem to welcome this album due to the differences in music style. I have read through several opinions and think I understand why they are so hate this album.

Here's the lyrics ...

I stroll through days and nights
And through hours of weeping
can't mend a broken heart by
Speaking to myself
I`ve been lost and found
And broken down by the treason in your eyes
I´ve been turned around
Turned upside down by the fraud in all your lies

Feel the lights are fading within me
There's a void and a growing anxiety
I can feel the bitter end draws near
I concede this life has nothing more for me

I fall through rays of light
In the hours of redeeming
Last call and far too late now
As far as i can tell
I`ve been burned in life, burned too many times
Wheel of fire still turning
I have done my time, walked too many lines
And my soul keeps on burning

[the chorus repeats]
Feel the lights are fading within me
There's a void and a growing anxiety
I can feel the bitter end draws near
I concede this life has nothing more for me

[and one last time]
Feel the lights are fading within me
There's a void and a growing anxiety
I can feel the bitter end draws near
I concede this life has nothing more for me
