Candlemass - Solitude

From the 1986 album "Epicus Doomicus Metallicus"

Lyrics:

I'm sitting here alone in darkness
waiting to be free,
Lonely and forlorn I'm crying
I long for my time to come
death means just life
Please let me die in solitude

Hate is my only friend
pain is my father
torment is delight to me
Death is my sanctuary
I seek it with pleasure
Please let me die in solitude

Receive my sacrifice
my lifeblood is exhausted
no-one gave love and understanding
Hear these words
vilifiers and pretenders
and please let me die in solitude

Earth to earth
Ashes to ashes
Dust to dust

I want this song for my funeral

[insightliviu]

Hate is my only friend

pain is my father

torment is delight to me

Death is my sanctuary

I seek it with pleasure

Please let me die in solitude

Pure bliss....play this at my funeral

@latinodude85 I disagree, I think they should first listen to Black Sabbath's Black Sabbath, Black Sabbath's Volume 4, and Black Sabbath's Paranoid, and Black Sabbath's Master of Reality. THEN Candlemass' stuff, donno, but considering how many Doom Metal bands pack on the Sabbath worship, it's kind of required to listen to them first.

First three words in the link is "woe". Pretty fitting for a Candlemass song.

8 years ago an old boyfriend of mine killed himself and his last wish was to play this song at his funeral.His name was Haris from Greece.he wrote this last wish on a piece of paper.nobody knows why he did this.We played the song at the funeral as he wished.I still listen to the lyrics and try to understand why he jumped from the 8th floor of a hotel..his daughter must be 12 now

@latinodude85 You're right, i have barely any experience with doom metal, but i think this is just badass.

[latinodude85]

I think any newbie to doom metal should listen this album first.

I'm sick of listening to people complain about how bad St. Valentine's day is. Can't you realize that it is just a day like any other? Seriously, society nowadays is absolutely controlled by publicity... Turn off the idiot tube, so you can read a good book!

@crayonoir *facepalm* Dude watch the videos. Just because I put a video on my likes that has the word "suicide" in it doesn't mean that I will suicide. I also have a power ranger intro video in my favourites, does that mean I'm a power ranger? -_-
