Jonathan Hultén - The Roses Lyrics

Raised to love the daybreak of reason
I must seek to be one with the night
As embodiments of Dionysos
Bathing in Apollonian light

And I strive and I strive to unite the two opposite forces
And again and again I will die in the battle of souls

Deep in chthonian nature
There are keys to the whole of our minds
I am laying down in the shadows of our times
And embrace what may arise

And I try and I try to find balance in opposite forces
And again and again I will thrive in the battle of souls

Blind we're acting out structures
Older than we'll ever know
But roses, oh roses
Keep rising out of the swamp

So I live and I live to embody the opposite forces
And again, to become, be reborn in the battle of souls

Ai Veidina, Veidina, Veidina
Ai Veidina, Veidina, Veidina
Veidina, Veidina, Veidina
Veidina, Veidina, Veidina
