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...
On the shore, lost in our time,
currents are bursting through
From the sky; an aberration;
chimeras' burning you
In the dark; inside the earth
blood runs barren now
See this age, so discolored...
It's breaking down somehow
Our homes are since long deserted -
the planet cries from within
and slumbers still as her child dies
We're hiding from her love
The drowning age no longer waits,
born through hollow eyes
Feel the wind, behold the scourge
come closer and watch it rise
I sit on the vortex waiting for the world to fall;
Stretching through this illusory
empire, gasping for air as another life is written,
as another soul is taken
Nature cast out -
in your eyes a light was flickering
I didn't mean to scare you,
but I miss you...
Catharsis' burning!
Let's bring our gods to the gallows;
A new moon will shine on you
Let's bring our gods to the gallows;
A new light will shine on us all
In aching sorrow I break down
I see despair in what we've become
These chambers of demons full
finally darkens this fading glow
On the shore, lost in our time,
currents are bursting through
From the sky; an aberration;
chimeras' burning you
The drowning age has given birth,
we better unfold our hands
As we weep; then we shall wake
to return the inborn Earth
Our homes are since long deserted -
the planet cries from within
and slumbers still as her child dies
We're hiding from her love
