Simple enough, I'm exhausted Terrible noise, vibrations Vision is black, tormented days Trembling hands of shallow dirt Seems so long, the devils are strong The burden is bigger everyday Oh, roses and poison Drunken desire now and long lost for you In the meadows of nightmares Oh, roses and poison Fire deep, the throat to sever the skin I'm drowning myself into another drop of despair Cripples my heart, tears it apart, I'm not giving up Of dancing in the meadows of paradise My words come filled with doom in this candle light Now the cup is out of my sight Gone into the far and darkened gloom I dream for evermore felling the loneliness of Lenore Teach me dear raven, where the sun doesn't burn So I can finally dream of a poison that will return Oh help me gentle wine to last one more night This heart is not mine, guide me back to light Simple enough, I'm exhausted Terrible noise, vibrations Vision is black, tormented days Trembling hands of shallow dirt Seems so long, the devils are strong The burden is bigger everyday Oh, roses and poison Drunken desire now and long lost for you In the meadows of nightmares Oh, roses and poison Teach me dear raven, where the sun doesn't burn So I can finally dream of a poison that will return Oh help me gentle wine to last one more night This heart is not mine, guide me back to light Keep this bottle laid before me, chanting ambary melodies Of times that will never ever come Another drop of green luxury I'm drowning myself in laudanum and mercury How can I regret the life I've sold This winter day is so cold I may dream for evermore For a glance of the lost Lenore
