Absynthe Lyrics - Singles - Aura

To gather the rusty coffin nails 

And follow the trail of the zodiac 

To search the pearls and the lotus 

-the passion you lost in the game (called life) 

Brought back the lost years to harvest 

The virgin-white winters of our discontent 

Black shepherd, false deemer 

The anguish of wars long gone still aflame 

In his frozen eyes

HOT SONG: Camila Cabello - 'Liar' - LYRICS 

For we no longer care 

For the secrets that lie beneath 

We no longer know how 

And banish our bastard sons 

All in the sake of make-believe 

Smothered in delirious dreams 

We cling to the mercy of a lesser god 

Bemused by utopian visions of heaven 

We choke in the drunken laughter of pain 

A faade carried from generation to generation 

Until the day we have no lies left to live 

"And the angels stricken with disease poison themselves 

with blood-wine and feast on the smouldering ashes of yesterday 

Absinthe - green master of despair 

Take me on a glorious journey to the rim of the earth 

Oh liquid heaven at the bottom 

Of the crystalline carafe 

Whose hypnotic fumes shatter our dreams 

In the wake of a new reality 

Burn the flag of a kingdom gone 

As we raise a toast to damnation
