Lyrics:

With this fall (I fall...) great grey clouds covered the sky
Dimming the light of sun, muting stars and crescent moon
Lost inside the world of gloomy, haunting shades
Descending into this abyss of human soul

In this dreariest of nights
Time can draw out like a blade

And yet Her grace shines through
Through me, and the brooding clouds
And if her light never falls on me
I'm content just to feel the lack

And this fall set requiem for my way
Away from other's paths, I turned to desolation
Away from other's thoughts, timid and surpassing
Away from the others, beyond caring

In this darkest of hours
Time draws out like a knife

The reflection once whole, now only a wound, seeping hurt and loss
The image once so bold, now only a scar, dry of hope and light

...For all things ought to say, left unsaid...
...For all deeds ought to do, left undone...
Be with me now...

Hah, in spite of having their tracks on my harddisk, I prefer to hear them in youtube always.. the comments section of Insomnium's songs is always a treat to read, as all the discussion is about the sheer brilliance of their music and not some shitty comparisons and crap talk, which you find a lot in other bands music. I so very much hope this band becomes so popular, but at the same time, they should never change the music they make, which has happened a lot with other great bands in the past.

insomnium is by far the most beautiful band i have ever listened to. Their lyrics are always so fucking good. They have a way of making sorrow and gloom seem so transcendent. This is music. This is art. I love you insomnium. thank you for making such amazing music.

I remember, when I first heard this song.. I wrote the lyrics down and gave them to my girlfriend at the time.. We were in a tough spot in our relationship. So she left me when I gave her the lyrics, but now, when I hear this song, I come to realize that nothing was my fault. She wasn't the one. And it was her loss, not mine. Thank God for Insomnium!
