Epiphany Of Time
05:08
|

I touch the fire
as it burns and lights the way
for a bleak prophecy of war and ruin
Silent messenger who runs blindfolded
I’m just a fading memory of time
Every step towards the sun
comes with a price
that I will pay with my own blood
as soon as I reach the oblivion.
My skin will become stone
and it will turn me
into a monument of senseless
wandering.
My bones are broken,
they won’t heal
as I follow this winding path
trying to reach my
demise.
And I carry this fire
like Prometheus knowing
that there will be nowhere
to return.
Cover my wounds
With a cloth soaked in despair
Hold my hands
In yours and try to break them
Just call my name
and I will follow you to slaughter
And when I’m dead
Let the cycle start again
I touch the fire
as it burns and lights the way
for a bleak prophecy of war and ruin
Silent messenger who runs blindfolded
I’m just a fading memory of time

Effigy Of Descent
03:08

With hands full of soil
I stand there and wait for the tide
to take me into its cold embrace
As the earth starts to tremble
I welcome the wave that brings cleansing
I keep my head under water
So I'm finally able to breathe
Sinking into the Void
So calm
So dark
I let the depth guide me
Through the garden of troubled thoughts
This is my offering
to the Gods of the unknown
The ritual
In which I disappear
I let the depth guide me
Through the garden of troubled thoughts

Eulogy To Guilt
03:00
|
|

I hammer nails in my feet
They are the only thing that keeps me from falling
Face first to the ground
I can't resist the wind that blows in my back
I tighten the noose
that has always been around my neck
I will not gasp for air
I am a flower that is killed by the daylight
Bury me again in this empty grave
So I can never know that I'm guilty of something
Burn me and give the dust to the wind
So I can travel fast to the place where I'm destined to be
I tie my hands
They find more peace in being stranded
I bite my tongue so that cries for help won't leave my mouth
I have my eyes shut
So they don't have to see me fail
I am a crow that refuses to fly
Bury me again in this empty grave
So I can never know that I'm guilty of something
Burn me and give the dust to the wind
So I can travel fast to the place where I'm destined to be
Celebrate the end of pain with the blade that pierces your skin
Rise like a monument and praise this gift

Elegy To Grief
04:32
|
|
||
I saw the bird of prey
fall
Into the stale smoke
That rose above the earth
No lungs to breathe
No wings to save the crown
Helplessly he choked
Under the weight of thousand stones
Under the weight of thousand thoughts
But I see the essence of this poisoned smoke
It’s nothing more than a cold breath of a pale horse
I’m that boy
Who was lost among the trees
The night is born beside me
While my wounds still bleed
So here I stand with empty hands
Look at me
I am death
So here I stand with blackened eyes
Look at me
I am your god
