lyrics

Lost still-drawn memories
Waters guide hollowed souls that reach for vaulted peace
Saw the waning light fade from meadows of dream
Endlessly pulled under time
Drowned from eternity

The faceless follow the shape
One of all the same
Eyes staring through
Veiled rise of the awoken few
Strains of dismal gray
Spires of lies feeding the sulfur
By degeneracy
This withered piece of seething heart

Come to me beneath
Unlock the face
Bury me within the sea
Still shall we sit in ease
The surface frozen
I can only count the days

Come to me beneath
Unlock the face
Bury me within the sea
Still shall we sit in ease
The surface broken
I can only count the days
Pull my heart from this stone

Retribution from sorrows untold
Leaving the mark of the past
Craving release from the distance
These roots become my last
Visions from the other side
Faint so dimly and so old
Leave this place
You will never know this cold

Lie unknown and free
The wind soothes your pain
Gone to know the wreath
I, alone, can see
The slumber falls tainted to bliss
Sing within the eyeless
The fire burns closely to me
Their vengeance obscured
Cinder of the fallen tree
Spirited null risen by stakes
Burning, the yearning, breathless without release
Lone demise, feathers the snake
Forgone, unhallowed, within its place
Shallow of wise, bereft of space
The gallows, they whisper of your name

A gift from the sky
Forever gone to hide
