Lyrics Through the Veil - Motorpsycho feat. Staale Storloekken

Nothing ever prepared me for this moment.
Nothing has led up to this ordeal.
The life I knew is gone – twice over broken.
And my fate it must be sealed.

How I wish I'd never seen an ocean.
How I wish I'd never smelled the sea.
I've never felt so powerless and broken,
Or less equal or less free.

Oh, but give me Nepenthe!

Every wave a jolt from mother nature.
Every breeze a challenge and a bait.
Every day a deluge or a scorching,
And every single night a wait.

Something fills the air, it's all around us,
As striking as a bolt out of the blue.
The impact's nearly rendered us unconscious.
Laid a mist upon the crew.

The radiance warms my soul and makes me dizzy.
A hazy veil now disguises the abyss.
Its golden sheen is pregnant with such promise.
Why it fills my head with
Blissful numbness
Going...
Gone.

I can never go back, I can never go back there.
I can never go back, I can never go back.
Oblivion upon your lips – Lethe flows in your kiss.
I could never go back, I could never go back there...
Laudanum, make me numb!
I could never go back, I could never go back there.
I could never go back, I could never go back...
