A Handful Of Nothing - Lyrics - Ebony Tears

Ebony Tears was a Swedish death metal band that started out playing melodic death metal which was prevalent in the Swedish death metal scene at the time, bearing a strong resemblance to the latter-day sound of At the Gates.

With closed eyes I greet the fallen Joy denied autums calling Withering beauty scornful madness My redemption A sanctuary from a year of failures A home for the broken Time to rest my weary bones To ease my heart I drop the stone In solitude I feel no pain And for a moment I am sane Organized from the chaos All intact I face the rain Wasted beauty owned by liars True deception Count me in as one of the cowards I'm no exception Time to rest my weary bones To ease my heart I drop the stone In solitude I feel no pain And for a moment I am sane With a handful of nothing And scars in my soul With a handful of nothing I walk through the door Into sanctuary
