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...
My mind wandered off in the distance,
Where I am far from all that cages me
All I could think of was death
Her name disguised in silence;
Angelwings and ravenclaws...
The shredding of my soul,
Steeped in a lavender smile
In thy eyes;
The womb of thy despair
Embrace my life
Within thy empty stare
The overcast sky consoling me,
The fortitude within my grasp
I think to myself I'm the sad clown;
Smiling reluctantly, but crying behind the iron curtain
These tears don't fall so easily
In thy eyes;
The womb of thy despair
Embrace my life
Within thy empty stare
Damn the illusion which fell upon me!
The bitter wine of reality poured all over my face...
And I despise what I've become;
Just a terrified man, secluded and trapped in time
In thy eyes;
The womb of thy despair
Embrace my life
Within thy empty stare
Together let us roam
Through endless dreams of night
The moon as our limit
And our souls as guiding light
But how can I refuse my empathy to be resolute?
'Cause it feels like... I'm dying
I have nothing to gain where there is nothing to lose
