Cherish My Pain Lyrics: Stefan my unbalanced soul is unleashed pliable desires become real in my dreams I try in vain to sleep on hopes and conquer the images of despair oh...untouched beauty.. undo my anger cherish my pain..painless one once my precious...now... be regretful with my frailty give me shelter in the darkness and protect me from innocence helpless am I ..am I so helpless ? I am restless...release me... confusing thoughts forsaken trust losing the grasp falling into insanity ...but don't ignore your weakness for me... The Merciful Lyrics: Stefan deliverance of souls to the eternal woe for love floating...drifting with fragility and build a forest of innocence awareness of painful dreams suffocation of the hearts castles of pain and agony rivers of isolation and fear sorrow's my feeling for your life regret my emotion for my strife destined by reality blessings upon fatality extinction of remembrance opens the fatal chapter trees of mourning seek the evening sky as begging hands...the merciful the untouchable face of despair will appear in blistering glory hear the howling of my thoughts ...hear it... In Sweet Bitterness Lyrics: Jason caress your breasts so gently I sink into a paradise of my own the scales of love tip rapidly in serenity...I cry I would carve my devotion in stone you disgust me though you're part of my desire bleak...this tragedy I crave for affection I carve my devotion in stone two worlds they tear me for thou my love to be ? pulsating...my wounded heart I stare at the aging mirror to this I be assuaged with hope as my enemy Ophelia Lyrics: Jason bleak is this tragedy...Ophelia my darling rose of May drown...cruel misery the curse of a broken heart Together in Solitude Lyrics: Stefan together in solitude there are no moments of pleasure... minds filled with sorrow not one second of joy dreams are out of mind deep gloom has made you blind dreams are out of sight I cannot make that right being alone with your emotions your howling. who will hear it ? the agony of love... pain the ultimate pleasure is that what he has promised ? in darkness you searched for light paralysed by strangling fright Mother of All Passions Lyrics: Jason oh...how I dream...dream of you my past anguish fills me with temptation so clear the memories of our days of youth the days of comfort in April bloom wandering with passion in our hearts the scent of spring we so adored spring sun filling souls with anguish ...with tender ripeness let me roam with the insects with passion and kisses this dying dream...it fades from me between aging roses this crimson tear scars me face ......sadness...... it fades from me...this dying dream fading...from...me... the days of scarlet passion the days that stay forever in my heart forever scarlet passion the days of sensual delight Flowerskin Instrumental Afterglow Lyrics: Stefan in the field of my soul i lay down and awake ? with the knowledge of the once forgotten seeking harmony within myself an afterglow of a vague memory softly veils my demise excelling myself in my own ...betrayal drowned in oceans of vice virtue is lost exiled into the barest part of my own nature another afterglow of the past now softly veils my plight disgracefully I am the beholder of this tragedy condemned to be my own... antagonist For Eternity Lyrics: Stefan pictures of euphoria in a long forgotten memory in the fields of eternity we were a lifetime in heavenly spheres utopia...we had it in our minds the crimson sky is our guard to protect us from invading sins living in immortality a life in love and peace don't you turn away...all we need is to stay together...forever and ever times of joy is all we know playing on grounds of imagery dancing on graves to love the dead laughing to fade our cries away... our wings won't break cause we fly through eternal skies where we can't grow weary ...our blood flows on... ...and on...we're chained...we're one ...one we are... the truth is our weapon in a war of lies we are the chosen ones to live in our human world Lyrics in plain text format	Line up Lucas van Slegtenhorst: Bass Jason Kohnen : Drums Robert Ruiters : Guitar Stefan Ruiters : Vocals Jerden Haverkamp : Guitar Additional musicians: Edith Mathot : Violin Sylverster Piyel : Keyboards Artwork Info All songs written and composed by Celestial Season Recorded at tape productions Raamsdonkveen - spring 1993 Engineered by Ton Bouwens Produced by Adipocere Records Cover / band photography by Bastiaan Fronik Cover design / layout by J.

Celestial plays a very depressive kind of doom metal. Vocals are varied grunts and clear voice, and they also use a violin, which makes it even more melancholic I think... The only problem is that near the end of the cd the songs start to sound a bit alike... but since they all sound good that's not even so bad. Rating: 8 out of 10
