Netherbird
Into the Vast Uncharted
1. Saturnine Ancestry
The most vivid thoughts are woven
In solitude divine
The most haunting knells are
Rung for empty halls
From oblivion all rises
Into entropy of life
Drawn upon the surface of the winds
Shattered from the sky
On blades of rusted iron
Upon trees and upon stone
Blood have washed of beast and that of man
On altars carved of bones
The crimson everflow
All rivers carry slowly
Our reflections of the past
Memories heavier than gold
Shadowing our path
In darkness she arrives
And the void will last forever
Come swallow all the light
With a hunger never-ending
Spanning sea and sky
I am not of this world
And this world was never mine
I ascent into unlight
In darkness she arrives
And her void will last forever
Come swallow all the light
With a hunger never-ending
Spanning sea and sky
I am not of this world
And this world was never mine
I ascent into unlight
In darkness she arrives
And her void will last forever
Come swallow all the light
Her void will last forever
Come swallow all the light
2. Harvest the Stars
When silver eyes open
On the shield of the sky
As it arches across the worlds
Faintly glowing
Tracing the age of a time
That died before it arrived
This tattered flesh is a gift
For a darkness we all reside
Our splintering bones a tribute
To the null, the eternal night
Oh, I harvest the star
I consume, I negate
Oh, for I am the light erased
An echo that never defades
For in darkness we all preside
We're the null, the eternal night
3. Mercury Skies
Now the lake are still
And this night is forever dark
This lands been nourished
By those who bled away
The silver strings trace back into the past
The winds foretell the saga of the pending end
And chaos commence
Under mercury skies
The calm before the raging storm
Black form, black clouds
The dawn of the great deluge
Under mercury skies i can face my final night
Alone
Split this world with lightning
Come fire, come hail
Make mountains crumble
Underneath your wings
The screaming howl of thunder
Aeons to bend
How it all begins and how it will end
The rise of age of man
Her twilight will descend
And the graceless hammers of time
The radiance before the storm unleashed
As we spectate our own departure
Behold the burning sails of faith
In the lightless night of forever
The oxinian dawn
Witnessing the dawn
When memories have faded into dust
And still our destination is unknown
I have witnessed the shifting of the tide
I was destined to venture on alone
Alone
My fear died with hope
This path is unknown
Like dust from a star
I settled a lifetime ago
The never ending road
Split this world with lightning
Come fire, come hail
Make mountains crumble
Underneath your wings
The screaming howl of thunder
Aeons to bend
How it all begins and how it will end
The rise of age of man
Oh, her twilight will descend
Under mercury skies
The calm before the raging storm
Black form, black clouds
The dawn of the great deluge
Under mercury skies
The radiance before the fall
Black form, black clouds
I face my final nigh
4. Lunar Pendulum
Tear the fabric of the night
As crimson fingers sear
Come chime the bells from every earthly belfry
For this dynasty of dreams
With splendour built upon the restless waves
The waves
Our treachery of thought
The heresy of will and aspiration
And know, the truth is cried
From unsung graves and gallows alike
This pinnacle of highs and lows
The pendulum will swing
The shifting tide
From serfs to the elite
All that grows and all that withers
Send your vanguards into my night
Blow your horns of Eden
My storm will sweep all specks of light away
And know, the truth is cried
From unsung graves and gallows alike
This pinnacle of highs and lows
The pendulum will freeze
And oceans rise
The lunar strain of time
5. Eventide Evangel
The Evangel of the dark
When silence lingers dead
For a blissful fleeting moment I am alive
Beneath the arching dome
The flicker of a light
All dreams asleep
At zenith face your abyss
On the summit of it all
Endless is the view
Endless the fall
All that you hold precious
Comes dead by break of Dawn
All of your belief will seep to dust
Scattered for the wind
At the shores of unexistence
Where nothing lives and nothing dies
Every path has lead me to this bridge
Her scene is ever-changing
Yet I recall each scent, every sound
Wolves shall roam this garden
By the power of her zeal
The fall is steep for those who venture here
I hear their cries like thunder
Howling in the wind
Echoing along the silver lines
The past into the now
Beyond the fields of time
At zenith face your abyss
On the summit of it all
Endless is the view
Endless the fall
All that you hold precious
Comes dead by break of Dawn
All of your belief will seep to dust
Scattered for the wind
Beyond the fields of time
The evangel of the dark
6. The Obsidian White
So phantomless the oceans
The ferocious force of tide
Tremors from the deep
A giant's breath
Into chaos this existence
From the soaring mountain heights
With trembling hearts we fall into the deep Neptunian graves
Now the eastern sky is restless
Our death a naked sword dividing seas
The obsidian white
The obsidian white
The obsidian white
The endless well of onixian light
Oh, in dancing sparks of fire
An echo from the burning vivid past
A silver thread into the vast uncharted
Our hunger will forever be untamed, so our hearts
The fate bestowed upon us so much bleaker
Our fear to feed perpetual flames burn our eyes
Burn our eyes
Forever is this boulevard we wander
The obsidian white
The obsidian white
The obsidian white
The endless well of onixian light
The obsidian white
7. Nexus of Unlight
Through the gardens of the night
To the Nexus of unlight
The origo of the dark void
Across the plains we ride
Stars falter one by one
Moon-silver eerie cold
Like ghosts the dancing shadows
Desolation now the road
Where the elders cast their shadows ever tall
And the silence is their solemn livid psalm
As all threads of past redemptions be reforged
Their hearts relentless hammers
On the anvils of the world
This rare untainted bloodline
The gift of knowledge keeps the light unheard
As our meagre castles fall
The hunger will return to all once lost
Through the gardens of the night
To the nexus unlight
We rode across the plains of shattered dreams
For all the godless and believers
Moon-silver eerie cold
To roam the great beyond to the end of days
End of days
Where the elders cast their shadows ever tall
And the silence is their solemn livid psalm
As all threads of past redemptions be reforged
