Portent (Svaj. cover)

Life is but a short preparation for the eternal death. This is a my cover of the great song "Portent" by the Swedish dark synthduo Svaj. Lyrics by Svaj. ---------------- Life’s just a fleeting dream A slip of the tongue A shadow cast on a wall A small portent of what lies ahead When your heart’s content There’s a promise that’s unbroken A croak from the ravens beak The grim reaper, riding in your backseat A gathering of ghosts They’re right by the windowsill – Rat-tailed maggots! A pointing finger, a toothless grin An end to her torments Or was it ours? Bring out your dead An empty vessel, the soul has fled In the eye of the storm The other side is real In this eternal light There’s no body, no turning back Life’s just a fleeting dream A slip of the tongue A shadow cast on a wall A small portent of what lies ahead
