Počátky skupiny Draconian sahají do května roku 1993, kdy zpěvák a bubeník Johan Ericson, basista a zpěvák Jesper Stolpe a kytarista Andy Hindenäs společně založili skupinu s názvem Kerberos. Ta hrála death metal s prvky black metalu. O sedm...
Greed in a cage obsolete
painting colors of old
Victims of culture unfold,
the world sighs once more
Look at us, our eyes are dead;
A gaze of incentives mislead
A deadlight, a whisper
Unearth your face in the mirror
My hope soon to be over...
Take me and lock me in
Throw away the key
I'm beyond all help,
So kill me
Bleed in the cage of deceit,
then; die in the cold
This is the pain you withhold
when the world sighs once more
A treacherous spawn here fester,
holding the future hostage
and dancing restlessly and bare
with the phantom of time
Flies swarm as mouths open
and dead words are spoken.
This room has a foul smell...
There's blood on the walls
and I need to break out
Look at us, our eyes are dead;
A gaze of incentives mislead
A deadlight, a whisper
Unearth your face in the mirror
My hope soon to be over...
take me and lock me in
Throw away the key
I'm beyond all help
So kill me
A screaming silence
hushed beneath the sky;
silence... thrashing the firmament
