Draconian - "Death Come Near Me"

A macabre, yet beautiful song, "Death Come Near Me" is the first song of Draconian's that I listened to. They portray death as a romance yearned for while maintaining the gruesome feeling of a dark death.  
Thanks goes to Franklin:


Draconian - "Death Come Near Me" lyrics

By day I sleep, at night I weep

Oh Death, come near me
Be the one for me, be the one (the one) who stays.
My rivers are frozen, and mischosen,
And the shadows around me sickens my heart.

Oh Death, come near me
and stay (by my side).
Hear my silent (my silent) cry!
In sadness I'm veiled, to the cross I am nailed
And the pain around me freezes my world.
My cold world...

In life I've failed
For years I've wailed.
Frozen in time... left behind...
The rapture of grief is all to find...
The rapture of grief is all.

Behind the shadow of life the lost hopes are grieving.
I seek the night and hope to find love...
So I drown in the silence of lives short eternity.
The tears fills the void in my heart astray...

Embrace me now, delightful ease...
Give me a world of wondrous peace..
Calm the desperate scream in my heart.

Oh Death, come near me,
save me from this empty, cold world
Oh Life, you have killed me,
so spare me from this cauldron of misery

In life I cry, away I fly...
Chosen to fall within these walls.
The rapture of grief is all to find
The rapture of grief is all...

Oh, shed a tear for the loss of innocence,
For the forsaken spirits who aches... (In us).
Cry for the heart who surrenders to pain,
For the solitude of those left behind.

Behold the pain and sorrow of the world,
Dream of a place away from this nightmare.
Give us love and unity under the heart of night.
Oh Death, come near us and give us life! (Life)

I know it's kind of pointless to include lyrics when the video has lyrics in it, but I'm one of those types that like to read lyrics like poetry.
