Current song lyrics
Who wants to separate<br />The world we know from our beliefs<br />And who sees only black and white<br />Distinguish loss from sacrifice<br />Some day we may come to peace<br />With the world within ourselves<br />And I will await you<br />Until I close my eyes<br />Close my eyes<br />Close my eyes<br /><br />When your time has come<br />You know you'll be lonely once again<br />And the final winter comes to us all<br />Life is treacherous<br />But you're not the only who must pretend<br /><br />We're a second in time<br />We're the last in the line<br />Of the prey that walks the earth<br />Good and evil combined<br /><br />I am the god in my own history<br />The master of the game<br />I may believe if she would come to me<br />And whisper out my name<br />Sometimes I wonder where the wind has gone<br />If life has ever been<br />Sometimes I wonder how belief alone<br />Can cut me free from sin<br /><br />When you close your eyes<br />Mementos of summer retrieves your mind<br />Like a drizzle afternoon cleans the air<br />When the winter blows<br />You're glad you remember you really tried<br /><br />And it comes to an end<br />Even winter... life fall<br />And we all have our beliefs<br />Pray for mercy for all<br /><br />I am a man without a mystery<br />The deal is done within<br />I will embrace the coldest winter breeze<br />And pay for every sin<br /><br />VICTORIA, NON PRAEDA<br />MEMENTO MORI<br /><br />UNA VOCE... VOLO, NON VALEO<br />DULCE ET DECORUM EST<br />PRO PATRIA MORI<br />MEMENTO MORI<br /><br />So subservant in your embrace<br />No more denial<br />No run away<br />This is the final<br />My last recall<br />And that's the price for what we learn<br />The more we know the more we yearn<br />Cause we're so alone<br /><br />I am a man without a mystery<br />The deal is done within<br />I will embrace the coldest winter breeze<br />The journey can begin<br />I'm still the god in my own history<br />I still believe that she will come to me<br />And whisper out my name<br /><br />Some day we may come to peace<br />And reach beyond behind the lies<br />And I will await you<br />Until I close my eyes<br /><br />Close my eyes...<br />Close my eyes...<br /><br /><br />willowing~...<br /><br /><br />Liner Notes:<br />Memento Mori starts with a melancholy piano part that sets up our longest song to date; the finale to the Epica saga and the The Black Halo story, not the last song on the album however. One last time Shagrath returns as Mephisto to unite with Helena (Mari) in Ariel's tormented yet finally clear mind. The moral to the song is stated in the chorus; "I am the God in my own history." Given that we all possess the means to do good and evil, and differ between them. We also control our own destiny to a great extent. We wrote this song in Norway together in the late winter of 2004. Like with many of our songs, Memento Mori began as a spontaneous idea that evolved very naturally in spite of the fact that it may have taken a few more bottles of red wine than usual to get through.
