Thin Be The Veil

There I see it
The fabric has a tear
Then I feed it
The ravenous "Below"
It will eat us
If all we do is stare
Void beneath us
is all there is or so you tell me
Speak, Oh Walker
You, the shadow in my blood
See the stalker
looming and I still don't get it
Fiend unlock'ed
Tell me what it is you want
Feel the darkness blooming I resent it
Never look down
Never look down
All alone and alternating in between the sun and night
In the shadow pieces shredded fading in the dying light
Everywhere and everything revealed without empathy
I can see it, breathe, and feel it tearing at the sky
Fine the threading
the barrier between
In regretting
The opening will tear
Fear of getting
The gift of the unseen
Friend, the burden
Is more than you can bear to shoulder
Rise, Oh Watcher
You, the shadow in my heart
I am stronger
in the now but not forever
Real the monster
Present from the very start
Hear the curtain loudly start to sever
All alone and alternating in between the sun and night
In the shadow pieces shredded fading in the dying light
Everywhere and everything revealed without empathy
I can see it, breathe, and feel it tearing at the sky
Never look down
Never look down
Never look down
Never look down
All alone and alternating in between the sun and night
In the shadow pieces shredded fading in the dying light
Everywhere and everything revealed without empathy
I can see it, breathe, and feel it tearing at the sky
Never look down
Never look down

In flame and light, a herald pale.
I see what I was born to see: The theft of reason will fail.
(We're drawn.... we're drawn)
Empty, unending darkness.
A perfect nothing consuming all.
Drawn beyond the event horizon.
Too late tonight the stars will fall.
Engine of fear dissolving... dissolving!
So strong, the pull consuming all the lie.
Empty, unending darkness.
A perfect nothing consuming all.
Drawn beyond the event horizon.
Too late tonight the stars will fall.Tonight the stars will fall.

Dark...
From inside the never, beyond the void, I hear the call
Wake into the nothing; Suspended time, temporal null
Into black...
No "where", No "when"
Let go, descend
The anti-light will blind
There is no beginning, no genesis, and so no end
When we ask of shadow we receive dark, and dark we send
Into black, breakneck speed, vector unknown
Dark...
If every star should die
In flame...
Ash raining from the sky
I know...
The end of time
I know it....
мы вместе непобедимы (We are invincible together)

Flame Betide
04:40
|
|||
All the embers
in the air
move in shadows
in the dark everywhere
An ignition
overcame
and my own world
Now is lost to the flame
Fire come to me
In flame we know
Only our woe, woe, woe
All creation
In our gaze
Disappearing
in the light and the blaze
Fire come to me
In flame we know
Only our woe, woe, woe
Lost
Lost in shadow,
I
I am
I am become flame
Fire come to me
In flame we know
Only our woe, woe, woe

I, Revenant
03:45
|
|||
Revenant of regret bound to sorrow
Haunted by a vision of light never-ending
Here: another time, another way, another line
To fall away in parallel and to return... return...
I'd trade it all
Break the fabric of reality
Time, life, entropy rearranged
Anywhere but here
Anywhere
Here, rock bottom is above my head
Here: another time, another way, another line
To fall away in parallel and to return... return...
I'd trade it all

It Never Sleeps
04:01
|

Now it wakes
Now it sees
It whispers in the night
And I hear
And I know
I'll feel the ugly bite
Despairing
All is lost
I feel the thing arrive
It hunts me
I am run down by a demon and eaten alive
Every night in the dark
I hear it calling me
Far at first, nearer then
Coming to bare its teeth
Then it's here at the door
And it picks at the lock
And it pounds and it pounds
With a KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK
And it's night after night
After day after night
And it never goes away
Until you hit the lights
The weapon of "knowing"
We'll need where we are going
I will not desert you
And then it can not hurt you
It's ugly. I've seen it.
I've felt the weight beneath it.
And now we lift it away.
The darkness resides deep inside
We choose to stand up and fight
The weapon of "knowing"
We'll need where we are going
I fight here beside you
If you fall, then, so I do
So ugly. I hate it.
Hand in hand we will break it.
And now we send it away.

Afterworld
04:13
|

Cruel is the dawn in arriving everyday
Blinding sun to remind only the light is gone away
Ruin upon all the flowers in the dusk
Hard to feel anything was real... as if it never was
Every minute of every day in an empty room with an empty heart
All away... ripped away
Final dawn, failing light in the dusk that leads to an endless night
Maybe somewhere in the after-time: a goodbye undone
In a world
In a world
Not in mine
Vast expanses
Beyond the bounds of time
Past the answers
of understanding why
Our disaster
is seeing that we are blind
Can we know?
Have you gone? Was it fate? Can we undo time? Is it all too late?
Maybe somehow on the other side: a goodbye undone
In a world
In a world
Not in mine

The Disquiet
05:48
|
|||
Every enemy within I have built, constructed
And any particle of pain, it is mine
No indemnity, no quarter, no mercy instructed
The very hardening of hate over time
Every enemy within I have made, created
And every article within the abyss
Every mirror I have seen I have cursed, berated
And any move is just a shot and a miss
Only visceral regret and remorse remaining
A quantum warning to myself in the past
Lonely isolated prison inside containing
The wanton destruction of first to the last
Only miserable intent will leave me devoured
A wanting of a time that never can be
Own the future and the past is reduced to hours
Of a memory and now I am free
Still the sun and the stars
shine on rubble here below
Through the doubt and the dark
and the awful undertow
And though the emptiness pulls your hand away from mine
I know the heaviness will leave again
