Sörskogen

I think Moonlapse said in the other thread, "I'd prefer a Sörskogen album over Damnation"...that I must agree with, even though Damnation is very good.
 
I would like to hear the other tracks Sorskogan had come up with...I think the sound is very much different than that of Opeth...except of course for Mikes voice and some bits of guitar....I think that it is funny that even in a different language that the voice is still so distinguishable. I would never wish for Damnation to not have been recorded...that would have been a shame...but I definitely would like a full length recording of the other.
 
Sörskogen Lyrics...

SORSKOGEN - MORDET I GROTTAN

En sommar en gång
värmen sveper igenom
vi ler skrattande
men ett lömskt lugn infinner sig
någonstans i skogen
grottan där vi lekte som barn
en sargad kropp i evig sömn
berövad livets gryning

barnet som mördade honom
barnet som tog hans liv
ingen vet, ens idag

kastar mörker över vår idyll
Ett ljus som lyser ömt
ta oss mot bättre dagar
hans själ vandrar vidare
vi går sakta tillbaka
stigen leder oss hem
dagen har lidit mot sitt slut
vi försöker glömma
mordet i grottan

barnet som mördade honom
barnet som tog hans liv
ingen vet, ens idag


--- ENGLISH TRANSLATION ---

The Murder in the Cave

A summer once,
the warmth flows through
we smile happily
but a deceitful calm creeps in

somewhere in the forest
the cave where we played as kids
a wounded body, in eternal sleep
robbed of (his) life's dawn

the child who murdered him
the child who took his life
no one knows, not even today

shrouds our idyll in darkness
A light that shines tenderly
take us to better days
his soul wanders on
we walk back slowly
the path leads us home
the day is coming to an end
we try to forget
the murder in the cave

the child who murdered him
the child who took his life
no one knows, not even today
