This was my favorite song when I was 12 years old. My mom introduced me and I probably played this song on my cd 1000 times over. I was obsessed. Still an amazing song
So people here have correct information this is the Robbie tronco-knobhead remix, the violinist on this song is Rachel McDonnell no she is not the original violinist for the band Rogue actually played the violin for the band on the first two albums by the cruxshadows (night crawls in and telemetry of a fallen angel) Rachel's first album with the band was the mystery of the whisper and she continued to be the violinist until her departure at the end of the 2007 dreamcypher tour. Johanna Moresco didn't join the band till 2008. I am a long time fan of the cruxshadows and have every album they have made.

So many great memories tied to this remix. My favorite Cruxshadows song ever.
Reaching out in dead of night
Emptiness by candlelight
Memory, a haunted sea
Souring in sudden rage
The damage plagued upon my love
Driven by this selfish urge
To separate yourself from me
But not the way you planned
The gambit flow of shifting thought
She'll write a kiss upon my cross
And with each moment of despair
Lay to heart a lovely tear
Within each bone the salty sea
Swims; an ocean silently
Swims; the forest of my dreams
Swims; the essence I call me
Come bringing back now can't explain
The measures swept away in pain
Hatred, will I escape your grasp?
Buried feelings let me pass
I cannot kill this final flame
The fire that once consumed my heart
But Hope must have some kind of fuel
And Chance must keep this fire
The gambit flow of shifting thought
She'll write a kiss upon my cross
And with each moment of despair
Lay to heart a lovely tear
Within each bone the salty sea
Swims; an ocean silently
Swims; the forest of my dreams
Swims; the essence I call me
The gambit thought...
The gambit flow...
The gambit...
The gambit flow of shifting thought
She'll write a kiss upon my cross
And with each moment of despair
Lay to heart a lovely tear
Within each bone the salty sea
Swims; an ocean silently
Swims; the forest of my dreams
Swims; the essence of my being
The gambit flow of shifting thought
(Swimming out the tears in my eyes)
She'll write a kiss upon my cross
(Looking for the shore)
And with each moment of despair
(I hope that this is the last time)
Lay to heart a lovely tear
(I hope that this is the last time)
Within each bone the salty sea
(Swimming out the tears in my eyes)
Swims; an ocean silently
(Looking for the shore)
Swims; the forest of my dreams
(I hope that this is the last time)
Swims; the essence of my being
(I hope that this is the last time)
The gambit flow of shifting thought
(Swimming out the tears in my eyes)
She'll write a kiss upon my cross
(Looking for the shore)
And with each moment of despair
(I hope that this is the last time)
Lay to heart a lovely tear
(I hope that this is the last time)
Within each bone the salty sea
(Swimming out the tears in my eyes)
Swims; an ocean silently
(Looking for the shore)
Swims; the forest of my dreams
(I hope that this is the last time)
Swims; the essence of my being
(I hope that this is the last time)

Couple of small issues - and I think you hear it better in other mixes:
*Shall* write a kiss upon my cross
Within each *bulb* the salty sea

@BlackSkyThunder The Violinist is the lovely Johanna Moresco.
This song is great^^
I like it because the 1st time I heard this in remix APOP:)
The Robbie Tronco-Knobhead remix.
Great!
Why does this sound so different than I'm used to? It sounds darker and creepier than the version I remember.. and somehow.. disjointed.
