Paradigma
As Autumn Dies (demo)




1. Sleep

Light is dim
In fact, it is naught
Spring went into summer
Yet summer stepped aside
As autumn took its place
Then autumn died
And winter came to stay...

Beyond the waste remains
Of autumns decayed suit
Neither heat nor frost
Maketh any difference

Silent solitude
Winter's reign
That which once was
And perhaps once more
To be ...sleeps

In the land where dreams are reality
And reality is no more to be
If thou from 'ere canst see
Solitaire reality
Winter thy cryb and thus
Thine crypt...

...And by spring's soft embrace you will awake
From winter's peaceful sleep...


2. Terra Mater

Spring ... Writhe
Autumn ... Rise
Twilight ... Begin
Decay ... Thus bring

Disharmony their son
The blackening of the sun
Betrayal begun
Disoriented creed, all past begone

Darkness can't hide them
From our moonlight gone black

It's born again
The beginning of the end
Our forces must blend
Our lives to expend

Disharmony has won
The blackening of our sun
Cleaning operation has begun
Disoriented creed is soon gone

Cold winds ... Rise
Past life ... Writhe
Parasites ... Die
Terra Mater ... Lives


3. Best Regards

As I lie here, knowing I will
(Never) Get away from here
(Alive) Through death...
No one can do anything but to wait
As I slowly wither from within

Soon I won't be able to move
(Will I see the land)
Soon I won't be able to speak
(Where my ancestors sleep)
Soon I won't be able to think clearly
(Will I ever journey home)

Dying faster, thinking of all things unaccomplished
Ideas only I could ever carry through
All my dreams discarded before my time is due

I will float into the ever
If there is an ever
I will only know for sure
When it is too late for me to tell you

So I'll just give you my best regards


4. Shapeless

To feel a bleeding soul; Agony of the mind
The bliss of torment echoes through my brain
Such waste; A loss of will
Echoes through lost time

I curse life, for which I hunger
I curse life, from which I am bereaved
I curse the chill of life
And welcome the warmth of death
Cancel this state, enter dimension shapeless

Feeling, bleeding
Agony of the mind
The bliss of torment
Echoes through my brain
Such waste, loss of will
Echoes through lost time

Death shall free my soul
Nevermore this mental void, out of this void
Into forthcoming abyss of time

So you ratify me as insane
But death is certain anyway
And life was not meant for me
My energy will never cease to be
A new dimension I shall see
Shapeless my soul shall wander
