From the narrow fields strangled by mountains
The river flow into the sea From the sea I set sail Drifting into obscurity With the moon as a fire at night Through darkness I ramble Falling into endless holes Signing up with the devil Foreign paths to be walked New flavours to be devoured Always silver lining at the end of the horizon The unknown endless power Shadows of the past get weaker by the hour Yet the ghosts of my life never have felt stronger Home is forever and it is as though I never disappeared I am always gone yet I am always here 02. Way Of The Serpent
Hissing sounds
From a cleft tongue A vexed sinister creation Sliding slowly from side to side In the shadow of vegetation The way of the serpant Coiled to defeat The way of the serpant The circle is complete With spiteful intentions Ready to cowardly attack Blending with the background Lurking behind the back Sneaking up without a sound From the deepest hole in the ground Staring deep into its eyes As the fangs flash And spike the flesh Filled with pain and numbness Venomous saliva deaths caress 03. The Devils Hand
After the storm the hate was born
Torn from the childhoods warmth Lost in time Lost in Life I broke away from the repent of lies So I walked Endless miles away Sought the company of the road Solitude it gave I continued to walk It was march or the grave I came across misery I conquered fear I challanged fate As the beast they created I always operated On the dark side of life Wrapped in shade Like a wolf I stray They see me coming But they look away I am a shadow That can always be seen But never touched I am their worst dream 04. Welcome Farewell
A blood red fire
That burns inside Ignites the spark to feel alive This line is moving from time to time Sometimes it's burning sometimes it dies This line becomes me it draws my life My will is of power but the line defines This bond of blood immensely strong Stays alive long after I am gone A seed planted to grow Challenging its obstacles to come Steered by the hands of its creator Or a stormier walk alone Lead into life Loved beyond what's told A bondless bound is growing Instantly all is gone Farewell Nothing remains the same Farewell The wind breathes the flame Newborn relations are growing The unknown conquers the safe To taste ramble without any dwell At the end of the line Welcome Farewell 05. The Reap
Shattered windows
Curtains ripped Roughed walls The colour faded Beyond its prime With wood walls rotten This fallen temple A life forgotten The reap Nothing is to last Harvester of death Reclaim the past This forsaken place Crumbling away Once filled with life Now yielded into decay Felled by the forces of nature Into ruins it has gone A lifeline at the end of its journey Silence after the storm 06. Sights Of Old
With all colours gone
With all life dead With all will absent I hang my head A walking dead In a dying world In limbo I drift away from this life Sinking into oblivion Recommencing with the wild As the woods surround me I lose track of time Forever is never Today is just fine Silhouettes in the sun Shades the open air Sights of old before me Eternity appears The roughed streams cleanse me Wash away my stains The air opens my senses The woodland outlines it clear This is were it started Might end here as well Here where things are silent It was never gone It was never here 07. Black Waves
White foam cover the blackness
Like a frowning beast it tumbles It looks so timeless and eternal So far from the known world In glimpse from the skies Moonlight is shed on this beast Stretching through the horizon It's mountain like endlessly deep Into the black waves I am sinking Drowning away from the ghosts Disappearing into eternity Into the mirror of my soul The pounding sound is mesmerizing A roaring surface with a hidden beneath Listening to its monotony Over and over it repeats 08. At The Brook
It was like the mountains had shifted
The paths had crossed Trees had become stones The forest filled with rocks No stars are burning The heaven pouring of rain The skies came against me North had turned south I had lost my way The further I walked The longer I had gone The birds flew against me In this circle I continued to walk The wind was howling The earth felt like clay The shadows were everywhere Night never turned into day In the haze A mild voice suddenly whispered A luring trickling sound so near With the blink of an eye the fog faded A paradise in front of me appeared At the brook I trembled and kneeled It waved me to join it Into the silent streams I closed my eyes And fulfilled my dream The moutains echoed my screams |
