At her last breath
I see the day's end
My heart turns to night
Drenched in evenfall
Starlight devotion, I know your name
Calling out in the dark
For a hope so pale
Distant echoes
Calling from the dawn
Re-awakened again
Chasing Daylight
Searching horizons
Words wasting
In the winds of mercy
They are so far away
Breathing, Inhaling from the ashes
Of my dying flame
The embers casting out the darkness
Distant echoes
Calling from the dawn
Re-awakened again
Sunrise over the clouds
Sets ablaze my soul
My search for the truth
In your eyes
In endless pursuit for her spirit
The beholder of beauty
In endless rays of light calling
I will become whole again

Darkness in These Rooms
06:40
|

|
Wandering through the corridors
I gaze upon all this
A gallery of ruin
Draped in misery, sorrow, and guilt
Spawned from the beginning
Settled and remaining in dusk
The darkness in these rooms
Know what you know
Staring through the windowpane
I see all ambition fade
Out of sight, from this room
Singing songs of plight
Lingering through these hollow halls
Emptiness embrace
Seeking comfort in the day
Yearning wisdom from the night
Time makes you stronger
But you still carry the open wounds deep inside
A blackened heart, sealed your fate
Twisting the knife, further and deeper
Within these walls, I found myself
Sifting through the memories
Time and time again
Until there's nothing left
Dragging yourself down
Assuring no way out
Threw away the key
Drowning alone, in obsidian waves
Spawned from the beginning
Settled and remaining in dusk
The darkness in these rooms
Know what you know

Dawn of Dismality
07:26
|

|
And the rain fell that day
Pouring down into the earth
Vacant haze throughout the land
The spring season and the scent of April rain
You knew this day would come
Embraced for what today awaits
Holding my hand in yours
Grey lights emit through the sky
Dreaded hours form this dismal dawn
Scattered sentiments
Throughout my mind
Echoing through this discordant scenery
Left alone
Lorn in this bleak hour
Flowers withered
Yearning for color again

Winter's Requiem
07:34
|
|||
|
The season of sorrow has arrived
My heart, frozen in time
I faded out into the white
Snowbound
With frost covering our wounds
As we cry, our tears turn into ice
Unable to heal
Suffocating in lies that bind
Trying to find my way back
To the warmth of the summer sun
Removing all trace of the black
My sins coming undone
Under the veiled sky
Blind is my inner eye
Lost all trace of the elysium
Winter's requiem
Trying to find my way back
To the warmth of the summer sun
Removing all trace of the black
My sins coming undone
The gathering of the clouds
The sky, enshrouded in grey
One final kiss of light
Long gone, miles away
An avalanche of loss is to come

Inside the Storm
06:48
|
|||
|
Winds of a bitter end
Have swept through my heart
Forlorn is my solitude
Horizons shrouded in a veil of night
Blinding what hopes are left in me
Across the sullen sky
The facade of light
Slowly fades into the void
Having nowhere to run, and nowhere to hide
Vulnerable in desolation
Fallen into the circle
Of my darkest hour
On my back, facing the clouds
Colors of the dawn
Are vanishing into the abyss
From the stars above, to the ground below
I stare into the face of emptiness
Inside the Storm
I have lost my way
Holding on
To gleams of light
To guide me through the shrouds of dissonance
Towards my own reflection
Expanding light, piercing through the clouds
Alas, the waves of solace
Flowing like a river, cleansing my soul
Settling dust
The smoke has cleared
Vanishing all of my doubts
Disillusionment of dismay
Clarity profound
In these graceful hours

Hollow
Pale
Uncertainty
Opaque
Amidst the grey
I wallow through
Shrouds of rain
Searching while in this dismay
Dreamt of the meadows and better days
Coming of frigid winds
Left in their bitter wake
Turning inwards to my thoughts
Seeking clarity from within
Nested in these well of dreams
Speaking to me
Coiled in these soothing streams
Ethereal luster lights

An Angel Among Ghosts

Harlot
With the eyes of sky, light-blue
You spoke as the days came anew
With each struggle of the untrue
The ghost of rome found her new home
Let the ravens sing their song
Time for you to move on
Time for you to fly
Into the darkness that enshrouds you
And find the light that burns
Abandon all your fears
The heartbreak and the tears
Leave it all behind
For a promise more refined
Breathe deep
The moment is everlasting
Sleep
While the shadows overcast the fray
Let the ravens sing their song
Time for you to move on
Time for you to fly
Into the darkness that consumes you
Enshrouds you
Abandon all
Abandon all
Abandon all

Half-Light Ascension
07:04
|
|||
|
I can't see the sunrise
The glimmers of hope on the horizon
To watch dreams fade away
Into the darkness
Behind the clouds
Lies a new dawn
Emerging out of the dark
Ascending from dusk
Into the light of hope
Another dreamcast shadow stains my mind
Moonlight has shown me the way
Through the fields of night
A void calling out my name
Made up of what's left of my darkest self
Leaving it all behind
Traveling towards the path ahead
Behind the clouds
Lies a new dawn
Emerging out of the dark
Ascending from dusk
Into the light of hope
