    Island Of Doom Lyrics:
    Destiny made her way and found you in a room,
    They told me, they told me:
    To undo the rule of mind and body,
    And nature laughed away as their voices grew.
    They told me, They told me:
    “Clean out the room and bury the body”.
    But I know you with a heartbeat
    So how does the night feel?
    When the lights fade out
    When the lights fade out
    When the lights fade out
    But now it’s gone, it’s gone, it’s gone.
    But now it’s gone, it’s gone, it’s gone.
    “Haven’t walked for days though I wanted to”
    You told me, you told me:
    “For with every move the feeling follows”,
    “In nature’s empty face, I am of little use”,
    You told me, you told me:
    “I’m just another fool for the earth to swallow”.
    But the road through mines will lead you back,
    and I will be with you
    Before the road of your mind will eat you up,
    on your island of doom
    Where the voices have all gathered up,
    to a choir of fools
    But I know my mind will reach you there,
    and I will be with you.
    Oh I know you with a heartbeat
    So how does the night feel?
    When the lights fade out
    When the lights fade out
    When the lights fade out
    And now it’s gone, it’s gone, it’s gone
    And now it’s gone, it’s gone, it’s gone.
    Why you wake me up today?
    Why you wake me up today?
    One two three four five.

    Sometimes I do listen to her music, thinking of old days, dreaming with my eyes opened, maybe she doesn't have hundreds of milions of views, but she is close to perfection. She just puts the feelings and the emotions into every single word that she sings, it's like magic, but real. I would give everything, just to see her on the stage, performing, and giving us the real-time love for what she does. We are blessed, thank you Agnes!

      @@Iskold86 Because he's right and the word "underappreciated" is thrown around so often that it lost its meaning. Can we just say she's brilliant, unique, you know -something positive, instead of whining how "underrated" or what-not she is? Those snowlflakes will call everything underrated and underappreciated these days... Who decides it any way?

    Tornou-se minha cantora favorita (na verdade ela é mais que uma cantora, é uma artista, pois os talentos dessa ultrapassam a simples expressão da voz) desde que eu a conheci na 1ª season de "Dark". Desde então não parei mais, mas ela simplesmente se superou nesse último álbum dela - o Myopia. 😍👌🏽
