Swedish Gothic Doom Entity DRACONIAN Announces 8th Studio Album, In Somnolent Ruin, Out May 8, 2026
Pre-Order: http://lnk.to/Draconian-InSomnolentRuin
Johan Ericson about the new single :
“In need of a more up-tempo song, “Cold Heavens” was the final piece written for In Somnolent Ruin. The intention was to create a simple, straightforward track to balance the album’s longer compositions and add versatility. Lisa’s laid-back vocals take center stage, guiding us through a bleak, cold landscape before giving way to Anders’ more spiteful and desperate delivery. The song ends with a sense of resignation, leading into the album’s next track.”

LYRICS
Cold Heavens
I am estranged
A desperate plea for escape
So we must part
This tether now must break
Just let it burn
For all this waiting is murdering my soul
Be it life, be it death
It's all perpetual unrest
What’s life but to learn how to die?
I’m there, at the edge of Despair
Devil may care!
With any raging storm some bitter funeral
How dreadfully cold must the heavens be
A land of misery bestowed on me
I see no saving grace in your masters face
I am estranged
I cannot drive this shade away
Then, where’s my heart?
What devil kept us apart?
Just let it burn
For all this waiting is murdering my soul
Be it life, be it death
It’s all perpetual unrest
And what’s life but to learn how to die?
I’m there, at the edge of despair
God… Devil may care!
With any raging storm some bitter funeral
How dreadfully cold must the heavens be
A land of misery bestowed on me
I see no saving grace in your masters face
I am the sound of falling
In the rift between God and dust
Now I’m in this prison forever
Drifting the starless tide
