Deep Silent Complete is the second single from Nightwish’s third album, Wishmaster. The track contains some lines written by William Shakespeare. Tuomas has said that the song is a “tribute to the mighty power of the oceans.”
In your creation heaven did decree
That in your arms sweet death should dwell
Deep Silent Complete
Black velvet sea
The sirens are calling for me
Saved my soul thinking "this song's a lie"
Sand on the shore is so dry
Deep Silent Complete
Black velvet sea
Brave day sinking in endless night
The age will say "This poet lies"
Heaven never touched earthly face
The age will say "This night was ours"
Blessed with the deep
The Silent, the complete
Deep Silent Complete was written by Tuomas Holopainen.
