Alone, forlorn in silence
Nothing left to me
But your memory
As I close my eyes, as my soul withers
The bitter taste of deceit
For all that's untold
This waste of love, a wound in my heart
The grace of your body, imaginary lost
The pale distance
Devours me from within
When shadows are no more
And the river stops bleeding
The throne of my dead illusions
My monument of pain
Is your masterpiece
My soul bleed it's black delusions
In a flowing torrent of hate
And all that you were revives
As I close my eyes
Doomed to my existence
Joy swept away
The mirage vanished
Behind a darkened sky
Hear my cry as I've witnessed
The fading of your memory
This agony inside my soul
As I lay myself to rest
So I throw myself to death
I drown

Well this is officially, by far the most beautiful album I've ever heard in doom metal. The drumming work is so original and innovative, especially in doom metal. The woodwinds and the violins are such a nice touch. The growls are so haunting. I love their transitions to the heavy instrumentation with the growls to the soft, melancholic clean passages. The clean voices are amazing and the melodies chosen in the voices are quite different and added a whole new emotion to the songs Andrew Derksen
