Shadows and Snow
1. Shadows and Snow
So resounding those promises broken
They still echo through this my darkened realm
Countless the days now since past
Still lingering and long, the shadows they’ve cast
On me!
These are blood soaked lands
With memories...
Shadows and Snow
From these fierce whipping winds
We are all hardened and shaped
Shadows and snow From which we’re carved and born
Origin and our bourn
Resounding those promises shattered
They still echo through this my darkened realm
These are blood soaked hands
With memories!
Shadows and Snow
From these fierce whipping winds
We are all hardened and shaped
Shadows and snow
From which we’re carved and born
Origin and our bourn
Origin and our bourn
And we can see!
I have walked the endless path, to meet myself
I have walked the endless darkness, to set your echoes free
I have heard the hymn of the world, it lacks words and melody
In the shadows and frost I found them, which ones they used to be
Used to be!
These are blood soak lands
With memories!
Shadows and Snow
From these fierce whipping winds
We are all hardened and shaped
Shadows and snow
From which we are carved and born
Origin and our bourn
Origin and our bourn!
2. Twilight Gushes Forth...
As the sword of midnight
Splits the shield of daylight
And twilight gushes forth from ancient wounds cut so deep...
It might seem forever
It might seem eternal
But believe me it just ain't so...
All and everything, will be nothing, only darkness, and cold
The scorching rays of daytime
The guilt laid in plain sight
Every belief will be so proven false, as the universe is no more
The cycle will end, darkness eternal
Darkness and cold they shall prevail
It shall quench the hurt, the guilt and all sins
It will forgive us
The cycle will end, cold is eternal
Darkness and cold they will remain
It shall slake the moon, the stars and the sun
And in the end forgive us
For what we’ve become
As the sword of midnight
Splits the shield of daylight
And twilight gushes forth from ancient wounds
Upon eternity...
Whatever the roots of your sins
One day they will all be absolved
By darkness eternal absorbed
Every progress will be proven useless
Every god will be just as dead as you and me
The cycle will end, darkness eternal
Darkness and cold they shall prevail
It shall quench the hurt, the guilt and all sins
It will forgive us
The cycle will end, cold is eternal
Darkness and cold they will remain
It shall slake the moon, the stars and the sun
And in the end forgive us
For what we’ve become

4. Ode to the False (Esse non Videri)
Ve dig ynkedom!
Esse non videri
In the realm of falsehood you are a king
Your mirror reflects a god
Yet I see no one, no one at all
Be gone!
I can see no one at all!
You are never gonna be the one
You are forged in the wrong flames
Your feeble curses go unheard
I’m a non believer
We shall cast you down the pit
Your high throne will collapse
Your fragile angels will behead themselves
Out of regret and disgust
Esse non videri
An ode to a king without a court
A god without a creed
A church without belief
You are never gonna be the one
You’re a castle built on sand
Your dogma rings so sad and hollow
I’m a non-believer
We shall to watch you fall
We’ll live to outlast you
Your legions will abandon you
Out of regret and disgust
A transparent empty shell
Devoid of passions blood
My ode to you the false
Is all I will bestow
My last poisonous offering
To whom betrayed us all
A last boon to which you might cling
As we make you fall, down
The scarred will slowly drain you into dust
You stare at me but I see right through you
Be gone
Esse non videri
In the realm of falsehood you are a king
Your mirror reflects a god
Yet I see no one, no one at all, be gone
You are never gonna be the one
You are forged in the wrong flames
Your feeble curses go unheard
I’m a non believer
We shall cast you down the pit
Your high throne will collapse
Your fragile angels will behead themselves
Out of regret and disgust
