Nightwish Lyrics

"The Carpenter" lyrics


Who are you? A man condemned to
shine a salvation
Throughout the centuries

Why? Was the wine of the grail
Too sour for man to drink

The carpenter
Carved his anchor
On the dying souls of mankind
On the tomb of this unknown soldier
Lay the tools of the one who for us
had died
Tools of the carpenter

The one they lick
The same old sick
Dream of their precious saviour

Kiss them deep
And make them weep
Over promises of eternal peace

The carpenter...

I hear you
Through the symphonic voices of
nature
The purity I could never doubt
They tell me to lie on the grass
And observe my saviour
The one crucified to the chirping of
birds

The carpenter...
