Torn to pieces, a broken mirror
No hope, no light, no warmth, no fear
In my veins, my blood is freezing
My pulse is fainting, without a will
Hundreds of ashes in front of me
The only relief glowing red
Drowning in sorrow, my sweet mistress
Nothing awaiting, deep down the depths
Shadow under the stars
No path before my feet, alone in darkness
I'm still, motionless, in deadly peace
With disgust I see the shards in my flesh
That pierced and drilled my shell in display
I long for the embrace of unknown peacefulness
A place to lie down, secluded
The only thing I wish is a slumber so deep
Please let me rest in eternal sleep
No god above me guiding my lost soul
No place to be but the cleansing fire
Faced to myself, faced to my mistakes
I don't even want to make them right
I've played and lost, the game is over
I would rather not roll the dice again
Engulfed by the cold breath of a surreal bliss
I'm looking for solace, gazing in the abyss
At the end of the year I usually make an album of the year list.
In 2023 I made an expection and included demos, solely because of this masterpiece.
This is ice cold, raw, beautiful black metal of the highest order, with great atmosphere and some amazing guitar melodies throughout. I absolutely adore it. sardonicwrath
