The Hereafter

When everything has failed I stand and keep on trying to form that passage Through grey matter and oblivion The Sphere's maze of blinding light Opposing the powerful forces of soul melting Gravity A pressure that builds within A mind that is broken, crushed and splattered Lost in a swamp of rotten core of mindless creatures brought to insanity Into the darkest reaches of the universe Katatonic embers drown violet light Empyrical towers alight celestial cravings Radiant gleamings of first twilight A place of transition an energy developing pool A swarm of sick and mangled souls

A splitting energies Residue of time itself An image of gigantic collapse and an eternal flight through space An unexplorable universe With it's own set of rules A silent and unknown presence A chaperone that gives sense of approval and guiding Bleak swirl of pale faces vortex of shadows disappearing

My time soon draws near Vestiges of hope gone Golden tears of regret Beget failed ruinations The flame has nearly burned out The tiger's eyes are blind No one left on earth for me To live for or to mourn Howling winds of voices Encrypted void of sound I release all that I am To this empty stream of time Waking up to a dawn of a new future my soul is pierced by regrets a burning sensation, hopeless bitter end A part of me has died, as physical as it can be Lo, there on the horizon Do I see my brother Scattered as remnants among the stars I do not see him in the golden halls of Valhalla He shall not feast with Odin and the gods I do not see him in the heavens Neither is he in torment in hell Not in purgatory No paradise on earth awaits this man No reincarnation to yet another mortal shell His creation is a paradox of his mental fixation Charged by the remnants of his deepest memories They say the valiant taste of death only once While the coward dies many times Still, my brother shall never know the agonizing pain Of death in a mortal coil Still, he remains... alone The stars ever at his back Watching... awaiting... for their final return Casting a shadow over me my soul is twitching with agony Sinister force that drags me upwards floating into weightlessness feeling the coldness in my soul The coldness of a dying universe a swirl of stars eating on each other heading towards gravity's Deep Well My mortal coil Encompassed by grief A life lived of brevity Tragedy amongst a myriad of failures Echoed by the scent of ineptitude Engorged by colossal shame Struggle to begin anew Will my death Bring me a new purpose Tears scream from tortured souls No longer to return Where are all the great ones And the Elder Gods? Where are humanity's lost and lonely Remnants of the dead...

Time to reconcile my presence in a Sphere of thoughts И помниш ли смътно, онези сънища (And do you remember vaguely, those dreams) В които световете се завъртат в Спирали (Where the worlds are twisting into Spirals) Увличат дните, Надеждата, Огъня, (Drifting out the days, the Hope, the Fire,) Поглъщат звездите и древните колоси, (They are swallowing the stars and the ancient colossuses) Пътища, които пресичат телата ни (Roads that pass through our bodies) и кошмари в трептящата бездна, (and nightmares into the pulsating abyss) А когато отвориш очи, кое всъщност е истинско, (And when you open your eyes, what is actually real) Попитай тях, студа и сълзите Бликнали (Ask them, the coldness and the flowing tears) In an abyss of illusions, prying through million minds stuck with confusion and pain Unraveling the truth about this new reality Conjunction in a multiverse The furthest place of sorrow Abandoned and forgotten in an own set of crazy rules a collision of different times and ages emaciated broken spirits

Sans âme... je suis sans âme Mais sans larmes... je suis sans arme Avalé par l'abîme sans fin de la gravité Un faisceau de lumière se déplace vers le sommet Atteindre, toucher, rechercher... désir de retrouver Ce contact perdu depuis longtemps De dépasser les lois de la physique, se perdre en chemin Se sentir insensible, piégé par la stupeur... Sans âme... je suis sans âme Mais sans larmes... je suis sans arme Un monde de rêve, d'étranger Un labyrinthe de lumière singulière Trouver la bonne, à sa manière Pour toucher, tenir embrasser Swallowed at the endless abyss of gravity A beam of light moving upwards Reaching, touching, searching Longing for that long lost contact Swerving through the laws of physics Getting lost along the way Feeling senselessness, trapped in a stupor A world of stranger's dreams A maze of stranger's lights Searching for the right one To touch, to hold, to embrace Avalé par l'abîme sans fin de la gravité Un faisceau de lumière se déplace vers le sommet A black hole where civilizations collide Left behind in cascading darkness Drowning pulses of memories Rushing back to event one Devoid of sight and sound Hanging on to a sliver of thought Terrified of memories Flooding towards a mental drain Fading into nothingness No light to greet me This lie of afterlife I will soon be soulless

I can reach the frail sky but will never have the sunrise A life was lost and so much more I will never feel the same I can't embrace the new horizon the ever burning flame of a world beyond A strong desire to go back A wall of faces a silent presence unfolds and a gentle push towards the burning flame Falling down, further down a tunnel of light, of crumbling stars a vacuum of sensations the pillars of doom Crushing down, further down finally bedraggled into an ascension feeling content and expunged Spiritual opulence, a perilous journey A poignant vision of my ledger sullen epitaph, words of sadness smoldering remnants of detrimental existence staying silenced before the brazen statue a crowd of lost souls spread out through an eternity joining them in a peaceful bliss Striding, searching for transition An exit from this black hole Bewildered and trapped for ages in a limbo of projected singularity Goodbye everyone, I love you
