Cusp of Eternity Lyrics

A child of autumn was born
Into a world of deceit and death
And a land of ice
A break of bonds would take her away
And install a sense of loss and eternal sorrow

She walks across the country
She holds her head up high in the rain
A mother is screaming for help
And she turns around to stare
At a scene from her memory

She is hiding a wish in her heart
That flows through her blood always
And it's culled from a dream
That someone is waiting to say her name
And call her to his side at the Cusp of Eternity

Cusp of Eternity Song Chart

This was released as the first single from Pale Communion. Asked by Rocksverige why this song was chosen to lead the set, Opeth frontman Mikael Škerfeldt replied: "That's the label's decision, basically. They wanted some type of promotional track, so they picked that song. I guess it's the most straightforward type of rocking song on the record, I think. And it was fine with us."

"Me personally, I don't care what songs they're gonna promote as the single, so I was fine with that."
