Recreation Day
Evergrey · A Decade And A Half [2012]
One step at a time
Small progress seems futile
But it's as valuable as life
I'm engaged to longing
With sorrow as the ring
Controlling me, denying me
My every morning is in every way
The beginning of a recreation day
The beginning of a recreation...
Time heals, but still the mourning reigns
I still breath when the loss reminds me again
I am here
Life is fear
And sorrow's all I know
Am I in debt cause so it seems
But what I owe,
I don't know
Devoured by guilt and cursed beyond control
My every morning is in every way
The beginning of a recreation day
The beginning of a recreation... (x 2)
(Solo : Englund/Danhage)
My every morning is in every way
The beginning of a recreation day
The beginning of a recreation... (x 2)
Small progress seems futile
But it's as valuable as life
I'm engaged to longing
With sorrow as the ring
Controlling me, denying me
My every morning is in every way
The beginning of a recreation day
The beginning of a recreation...
Time heals, but still the mourning reigns
I still breath when the loss reminds me again
I am here
Life is fear
And sorrow's all I know
Am I in debt cause so it seems
But what I owe,
I don't know
Devoured by guilt and cursed beyond control
My every morning is in every way
The beginning of a recreation day
The beginning of a recreation... (x 2)
(Solo : Englund/Danhage)
My every morning is in every way
The beginning of a recreation day
The beginning of a recreation... (x 2)

Released following their breakthrough with "In Search Of Truth," the song exemplifies the Swedish melodic death metal group's signature blend of soaring vocals and driving guitar riffs.
