MelancHoly (Holy Edit) Lyrics:
Beneath these burning tracks
The Earth below
The Moon above
They breathe cold fire

Began to feel these cracks
Crumble the core
Hate and adore
My blind Empire

The saints, I’m serving black
This broken mission
My true religion
Fuel in this pyre

MelancHoly, Melancholia
Will you wash my sins away?
Melancholia, Melancholia
All these days are here to stay
MelancHoly, Melancholia
Will you chase the sun away?
My melancholia
Need you to stay

Eyes keep staring back
From the Earth below
The Moon above
I am that fire

That keep the pain intact
Cut my self to heal
Till I start to feel
Closer to my God

MelancHoly, Melancholia
Will you wash my sins away?
Melancholia, Melancholia
All these days are here to stay
Melancholia

Crumble the core
Hate and adore
From birth to earth
Love became
Destroyer of worlds

MelancHoly, Melancholia
Will you wash my sins away?
Melancholia, Melancholia
All these days are here to stay
Melancholia
Will you stay?

Love the evolution of Swallow the Sun. “The more things change, the more they stay the same”.
I will grow old with this amazing music.

[Artyrian_Tyler]

Як же давно я їх не чув. Добре, як завжди🤙🏻

[Gastro-enterite-en-imax]

Why are people complaning in the comments?? Its an alternate version of an existing song. If youre disapointed and you didnt like the first iteration, what were you expecting?
And the people that dont like that the growls arent there any more, then listen to the og song then?

[mrtn]

So, StS are going the Opeth-way now!? 😏

[scraggesh]

So you decided to hide the least of growls? But why?
Strong feeling of deprivation.

[RocketSkates]

Somehow even worse that the original version

[BlackRider]

you lost your chance for an Iced Earth cover

[beermageddon]

This would sound better with a desperate sounding growl at the end. Trying too hard to sound like sleep token.
