Solitude Aeturnus Alone 1. Scent Of Death Flesh peeled exposing the rotting scent of death The center of damnation Tears shed falling into the abyss Sorrow wraps its arms On knees I bend wounds enrapture Breaking – writhing – God’s pain eternal Into oblivion once again – sights focus With blind resolve – killing the child [x2] Born from life The stench of pleasure Drowned in failed visions A rip through time Destroyed and beaten – a black shadow looms Destroyed and beaten – the shadow looms [x2] Born from life The stench of pleasure Drowned in failed visions A rip through time Take me Laid – exposed And dead A world bears upon This wretched creature The prayers of relief – soon unanswered The child – further into the dark fades Obliterated by the hands of the now dead Upon my side they rest No longer wishing for life The child lets go The child lets go Buried in blood 2. Waiting For The Light Sunlight fails you The darkness falls upon your – pale soft skin Wet, dripping pain bound by black lucid dreams – from injected steel [x3] I see the sadness falling from your face You cry out loud The mounting fear A muffled cry Wide open – eyes spilling life [x4] You’ll still be waiting for the light Waiting 3. Blessed Be The Dead A dream, a lie Nothing to be A death, a loss God gives nothing Dreadful delusions Blissful peace Why do I ache? Must find release A nagging pain on and on Back laid, sky above Why do I ache? Changing perceptions A vision slowly dies Pain within slowly grows Save me, I fall Again I fall Save me, I’m lost Again I’m lost Blessed be thy dead Dreadful delusions Blissful peace Why do I ache? Must find release A nagging pain on and on Back laid, sky above Why do I ache? 4. Sightless Paths illuminated by hell's fires Floating onward to end's demise Turn to see the once was Turn to see what was This spirit flails with twisted motion Another claimed by God’s delusions This spirit flails with twisted motion Another claimed by God’s delusions With a weary heart Accepting defeat Soiled from within Tainted by existence Softly speaking with tongues of anguish The calm invades breath the foul air Composed of nothing I return to nothing Composed of nothing I return Reclaimed again the beauty departs Wings of life never gain flight Reclaimed again the beauty departs Wings of life never gain flight With a weary heart Accepting defeat Soiled from within Tainted by existence Goodbye to the known Embrace the black hell Names for demons still unknown Floating onward to end's demise The calm invades breath the foul air This spirit flails with twisted motion Another claimed by God’s delusions This spirit flails with twisted motion Sightless as the flesh tears [x2] With a weary heart Accepting defeat Soiled from within Tainted by existence 5. Upon Within Setting sunlight embraces my body As I stand upon a precipice of death Faceless as the dark descends Reclaiming a once vivid soul Torn from this plain, not ready yet Taken into the ethereal Visions never achieved, lifeless and broken A moment in time, wiped from existence [x2] Twisted and tainted Black emotional pain Drawing on life’s blood Drowned by the hand of fate Horizons with no movement, forever still Falling rain, washing the dead Mocking the motionless eternally damned Dreams unfulfilled, dreams unfulfilled As weakness takes hold, and binds Screaming in silence, words falling, never heard Taken into the dark dreams of substance Bent beyond repair, beyond repair bent Twisted and tainted Black emotional pain Drawing on life’s blood Drowned by the hand of fate 6. Burning Thoughts collide, raping shreds of sanity Invading my mind through light and dark A vision of beauty, spreading wings, envelope my soul Breathing life, releasing the pain Lighting flames upon a darkened path Awaiting reprieve, one image burns I no longer control myself Pushed and pulled beyond my strength Eyes that shine, words unknown Pushed and pulled I no longer control myself Awaking by chance, the spinning circle grows A oyre fir rest, this body now limp Silent prayers recite themselves A pacing motion, well maintained Dancing softly, a world stands still Damp with sorrow as wounds yet bleed Mindless tomorrows, havoc calls my name Lucid and alone, death calls my name I no longer control myself Pushed and pulled beyond my strength Eyes that shine, words unknown Pushed and pulled I no longer control myself She sends a voice, angelic sounds Touching a heart, shrouded in mist Lifting the veil, to receive the black An angel descends, God’s greatest gift 7. Is There… A burning hate that grows As the one’s released from within, within my sphere Tomorrow brings only plight Another day of nothing “Praise be” to the one, the one that gives Treasures, only a token of misguidance A lie only to be lead and to be followed blindly Release the pain Follow your word How can one, one believe When hell is all that is given Where is the truth Where is the light Where is the peace Where is God Where is the truth Where is God Desires to be Desires to live Who, who is the God Forever spinning Forever dead Bent and twisted A pleasure only you behold Make the meager weak Love they god and behold Praise be Where is the truth Where is the light Where is the peace Where is God Where is the truth Where is God Desires to be Desires to live Heaven is not far but tied I go nowhere Visions of life to be are wasted thoughts and time continually beaten and dragged through life Where is the truth Where is the light Where is the peace Where is God Where is the truth Where is God Desires to be… 8. Tomorrow’s Dead Awash in waves of darkness Light creeping, unwelcome Visions behind these eyes They melt into rivers of death A burning desire, rips and tears Drifting endlessly, days pass Give me breath Give me love Give another day Don’t let me fade Sorrow bleeds these veins Another hour of loneliness Waiting as the world falls apart Give me breath Give me love Give another day Don’t let me fade 9. Essence Of Black Numbing the pain Pathetic creations of unresolve Pain controls from within The dark knows me well Draining my essence as I sit in silence Walking empty through the rest of my days Barren plains filling the void Winds that chill, frozen in all movement Repeating followed patterns Days last for nothing, cold, so cold Staring blindly into spiraling circles Another injection of peace subdues Am I tired or am I losing touch Three stand before, binding the lost Shattered days, shredding my skin Bleeding the essence The essence of black The essence of black The essence of... Confusing the mental, emotions they fall free Unrelenting and ceaseless Split in two by night and day No balance to be had Shattered days, shredding my skin Bleeding the essence The essence of black The essence of black The essence of black The essence of... 10. Embrace Pieces shattered and separate Deep in detestation Numbing imagery Slithering, seething of my spiritless soul Desperation, oh it permeates my consciousness Talons of hysteria embrace my delirium Embrace the brilliance, embrace the absurdity Embrace the demons of your delusion Embrace the brilliance, embrace the absurdity Embrace the demons in your soul Sweet agony racks my, oh my tortured cage Feeding the insanity of my conception Murky waters flood decaying, decaying passages Lacerating the recesses of my lucidity Embrace the brilliance, embrace the absurdity Embrace the demons of your delusion Embrace the brilliance, embrace the absurdity Embrace the demons in your soul The demons in your mind.... Mangled, clawing through the destruction Total destitution choking every passage Crushed and consumed oblivion descends Sweet insanity calls my name Embrace the brilliance, embrace the absurdity Embrace the demons of your delusion Embrace the brilliance, embrace the absurdity Embrace the demons in your soul The demons in your mind....
