Doom:VS
Earthless
1. Earthless
Earthless bleak creation
Drowning in the void
Leaving me nameless
In the white, cold light
A divide, I long...
...to understand
The rapture
This rapture within
A mist of broken sorrow
An unforgiving storm
Piercing the shear existence of
A life of no belonging
Inside the womb
Sleepers of the quiet Earth
This flesh, shaped like a tomb
We are Earthless
Wretched existence
The eclipse of my sun
Wielded by the heartless
In sorrow, we fall
To slumber forever
These limbs, so weary
Freezing...useless and old
A mist of broken sorrow
An unforgiving storm
Piercing the shear existence of
A life of no belonging
Sleepers of the womb
Inside the wounded Earth
Drowning the colours of life...
Into death...
Shaped like a tomb
This body, my flesh
Silence descends
We are earthless
2. A Quietly Forming Collapse
The weight upon me
In the shape of buildings
Crushing hope
A white sky collapse
The stain of a broken life unfolds
Through the ashes I walk
My hands soaked with blood
From the burial of my heart
In the depths
A quiet cold
Forming muted will
The sun collapse into the nether
Blood on my hands forever
Forever
The river only brings poison
The well brings nothing but tears
Nothingness becomes the shadow
The shadow turns into me
These hands...
Was meant for greater things
These hands...
My heart...
Clenched and leaden winged
My heart...
Inside the sickness
This coil of darkness
Breathing lifeless
The sun collapse into the nether
Blood on my hands forever
Forever
3. White Coffins
Something crawls beneath the murk
Watch them drown while given birth
Born with grief so depraved
Only to feel the rich soil of the grave
Innocence, loss of hope
Buried in the deadend soil
A winding stair, they walk alone
Through the empty unknown
Of darkness and of night
White coffins and dark skies
We descend, we pretend
I miss the warmth...
...the laughter
The children builds coffins
With hammers and nails
They don't build ships
They have no use for sails
They die
Don't let them die
In the void...
...of the pale blue fire
Take their hands
Embrace their tears
Something crawls beneath the murk
A dying call...
The darkness swarms
Through their mouths
Festering worms
Of darkness and of night
White coffins and dark skies
We descend, we transcend
Sinking further
A slow demise
They die
Don't let them die
In the void...
...of the pale blue fire
Take their hands
Embrace their tears
4. The Dead Swan Of The Woods
Death gathers slowly
In these woods
A burning heritage
...lost to the wilderness
I remember nights of rain
Swallowed by the cold
In this all-consuming void
I reach out to thee
Reckoning tears
Underground hours
Trying to remember
...dying to forget
On the lake, frozen in time
Autumn's slow demise
You took my hand
Bleak from knowing
That everything dies
Your body still cold
From the fall
Weary eyes of old
...watches from the skies
I remember nights of snow
Consumed by the flames
From this all-consuming void
I reach out for you...
On the path, frozen in time
Winter's final rest
I took your hand
Cursed with knowing
Accompanied by your
Final breath
5. Oceans Of Despair
Pale flickering heart of dust
Please bear with me
For how long will this fire burn?
Patterns repeating
How far can my voice reach?
Beyond the stars?
Will dusk bring hope or devour me?
Even with the sun, comes the night
As gravity took you away
I slept by the gallows that day
When gravity took you away
I've lost so many years
Building my defence
Through oceans of despair
So many years
I've tried
I failed
Crushed by the waves
And thrown into the ocean's throat
This vast sea will be my death
If only my heart could navigate
6. The Slow Ascent
In the void, Earth's asleep
The sickness grows
Embraced by it's tainted wings
We still bleed
Cold oblivious
Dying star
Drown my tears
With your life
Let me rise
Let me sleep
In your arms
One more night
Paint like rust, covers me
Like the blood
Deep.. deep within her
Mourning womb
...only night
Into the dark
Thru sullen lights
I remember...
Torn apart...
From the violent beating
Of a heartless winter
I long to rise...to feel
Cold oblivious
Dying sun
Drown my tears
With your life
Let me rise
In your arms
I'll let go of this endless night
Now that you're gone
Winter's come
Please let me rise
Please let me feel
