The Dead Ocean
06:35

A dead ocean
A lifeless hand
The stillness broken
Witness this serenity
A boat disturbs the water
Within lay a body a man torn
His empty eyes mirroring the stars
The horizon opaque
The sun shines cold behind these silent veils
Heaven and sea the same shade of bleeding
The Dead Ocean
The Peaceful Sleep
A Dream In This Eternal Dawn
Where Life Rest
Where Time Fade
Where The Sun Shines Cold
He barely moves
Hidden from us all
His skin course
Marked by the rust of nails
And tar of the boards
He barely breathes
Forgotten by this world
Dreaming of the final rest
Vast shapes beneath the surface
The shadows silently ascend
Dare not reach out
Dare not awaken their peaceful slumber
No wind can cleanse his fate
The sun cannot break this haze
The clouds caress this still mirror
An empty vessel drift into the nothing
Witness this serenity
The Dead Ocean...

Bury Me In Flames
05:07
|

When the last word's been written
When the last note's been sung
When my body is emptied
When the echoes have gone
Set my ashes to the wind
When the screams have faded
When silence prevails
I'll welcome every fate
The tranquility I've craved
Set my ashes to the wind
I'll walk this valley to rest my weary soul
Toasting those before me and everything I lost
Smile at the warmth on my face and in my throat
Settled beneath the hide
In the last light of the midnight sun
No rest beneath the roses
No peace beneath the stone
No sad grave
Bury me in flames
Where the valleys become one
Where the river green flow
There I'll rest in silence
A seed for those who'll come
This is where I'll sleep
When slaughter wanes
When faith fades
When our greed corrode
When peace prevails
This is when I'll dream
I'll drift into the valley with the ghosts by my side
Revel in the the northern winds bite
Knowing every burden gone
Settled beneath the hide
Resting in the snow
Fading in the first rays of the winter sun

The Storm Calls
04:12
|
|||
Dark clouds gathering
A storm approaching
Tethered up high
Screaming into the wind
Mania boiling
Eyes ignite
Dark clouds gathering
Lightning divides the sky
Cowards cower
Hiding below
The hull falters
Desperation grows
Immutable they stand strong
Through the raging waves they ride the bow
The storm calls us all
Into the dark into the deep
Dark waves whispers
The cold embrace of the sea
The allure of defiance
We spit at the sun
The sky opens upon the drowning crowd
To ride the storm
Into the tempest
The deafening roar
Eyes aflamed
Tearing through the cold waves
No harbour is safe
None see the light at the horizon
Only the end in this manic destruction
To ride the storm
Scream against the tempest
The deafening roar
And bliss of ignorance
Defiant eyes aflame
Tearing through cold waves
Sinking
The Storm calls...
The allure of defiance...

A Drink With Death
05:09
|

A drink with Death
A story none would tell
A fateful night
A small calm stream
Where we lost ourselves
In this mourning mist
We would never leave
There must be more
If I could only see the stars
I don't want to see the world through my eyes anymore
Cannot take the pain, cannot bare the screams
Was put here to cleanse the rot, to bring balance to this world
Searching for the rebirth of light, I found only hurt
I am Death and Death walks alone
There we were
By this beautiful stream
The sun set low on a life eternal
And there he came wading
Almost walking on the water
His dark coat rippling slowly
As if in a dream
We raised his bottle
And we drank his liquor
A toast for past battles
We joined his fervour
The bottle never ran dry
And our spirits flew wild
Yet the earth were oh so still
We knew we would never leave
Silent forms of trees by this beautiful stream
The stars are shaded to my eyes
I am shackled to this earth
I don't want to see the world...
I am Death and Death walks alone
If I could only see the stars
But they are shaded
I am shackled to this earth
And I walk alone
