4. In The Moon's Absence

[performed by Drowning the Light]As the cycles of the moon draw to an end
To that night where only the stars can see
Where darkness conceals the horror
And death stalks the warmth in the autumn air
Innocence is all but lost and forgotten
And this night knows no forgiveness
Oh how the moon's light brought comfort to the living
And in its absence the true nocturnal creatures lurk
The wind howls an unearthly howl
And the candles flicker before their glow is extinguished
The darkness can play tricks
Swelling and changing as one's eyes adjust
It is too late then...
Swept away into the unknown... by the unknown...
Innocence is all but lost and forgotten
And this night knows no forgiveness
Oh how the moon's light brought comfort to the living
And in its absence the true nocturnal creatures hunt


5. A Lost Thought Brought Forth

[performed by Drowning the Light]A fate forever unknown
As the spiraling illusions swell
Within this chaos comes calm
And from this calm comes chaos
Waking from morbid dreams
But never remembering their message
A frozen moment in time
A lost thought brought forth
A frozen moment in time
A lost through brought forth
To walk the path of ruin
To know the voice of despair ...it is my own
A choice now in stone ... it is my own
This insanity that plagues me
I now call home
A frozen moment in time
A lost thought brought forth


6. Silver So Cold On My Eyelids

[performed by Drowning the Light]The bell tolls for my passing
Put to rest in the moist ground
So dark and reminiscent
From a time when I was younger
When I knew the destiny
That carved its name into my chest
One of uncompromising pain
Dark visions and sorrow
Silver so cold on my eyelids
Payment for the ferryman when he comes for me
I passed with honour and pride
I did not fear this next phase
Only embraced it... I had always embraced it...
The only certainty
Is the uncertainty of what lies beyond
And where my dark soul will soar forever after


7. Sacrificial Woodlands

[performed by Drowning the Light]A murder of ravens circle the woodlands below
Drawn to the crimson sanguine
Dripping from the altar
Souls gather around the stones
Chanting incantations
And burning native incense
The sacrifices' screams tear through the sky
Sigils painted over their naked body
In blood and ash
As a cloaked and painted figure
Plunges a knife deep into their chest...
Between the lines of the pentagram
The blood flows
And then the forest is silent
The eyes of the worshippers
Wash over in black mercury
The dark pull in nature raptures their very being
Possessed by darkness, haunted by the light
Now one with all
