Lyrics

Intro

Dim corridors groan under fever’s refrain

Silent processions drift, cloaked in despair

Shivering choirs sigh through maladies’ reign

Ashen hands weaving sickness from air

Bridge

Glistening daggers of mournful intent

Creep along walls stained silver and grey

Sickness in cadence, relentless and bent

Guides us along as the daylight decays

Verse 1

Candles gutter in visionless rites

Shadows gather as illness takes hold

Breath of the wretched stains the pale light

Dreams unravel, hollow and cold

Pre-Chorus

Masks of silence crumble and fall

Motionless figures drift in the gloom

Each note unraveling reason’s thrall

Melancholy echoes in every tomb

Chorus

Symphony of the sick rings in shattered halls

Strings drowned in sorrow, keys twisting fate

Choirs of anguish, a requiem's pall

Beneath trembling arches, despair resonates

Verse 2

Pale moon shivers on fevered skin

A fevered requiem dressed in black

Blood on the altar, a tremor within

Madness rises where reason cracks

Pre-Chorus

All is consumed by shadow’s lament

Knives of melody carve the dying air

Crimson secrets the silence has sent

Broken bodies spiral, lost in the snare

Chorus

Symphony of the sick rings in shattered halls

Strings drowned in sorrow, keys twisting fate

Choirs of anguish, a requiem's pall

Beneath trembling arches, despair resonates

Post-Chorus

Wailing sorrow, never ending

Wailing sorrow, never ending

Bridge

Final breath trembles in agony’s choir

No solace whispers from distant unknown

Echoes of illness ascending higher

Chords unravel hope, marrow and bone

Chorus

Symphony of the sick settles to decay

Silent crescendo, dissolution’s art

Cascading sorrow, the dusk will obey

Death’s requiem burning deep in the heart

Post-Chorus

Wailing sorrow fades to silence

Wailing sorrow fades to silence

Outro

Shadows dissolve with the funeral bells

Bitterness lingers where daylight is gone

Ancient afflictions weave countless spells

Silent dirges cradle the dawn

Instrumental

Strings shudder in bleak lamentation

Keys shiver, a sigh through the night

Ashes and sorrow, their fading ovation

Symphony of the sick in dying light
