The Nether Earth
For years I wondered in the forest In solitude, with no singing of birds This hell was my shrine, pillars of wood And the torn veins were the only way I could Touch your face in a nightmare Embrace your pain, never Scared to face myself in the mirror Or look at the sun, as if I deserved it A longing for the one I killed A place inside where I can still Touch your face in a nightmare Embrace your pain, never scared Arise again and claim you to myself Or bury my heart, this blackened half Touch your face in a nightmare Embrace your pain, never scared Arise again and claim you to myself Or bury my heart, this blackened half

I wonder how long it will be Until I find serenity In divine yearning Without any uncertainty I shall fall I shall rise I shall fade When you die But fear is nesting inside me And mother sparrow is feeding its child In her warm embrace I feel so safe Even though this embrace had been defiled She takes me under broken wings And nurses me once again She keeps me blinded from what's real So I don't have to feel any pain I wonder how painful it will be To unveil what lays inside This broken child that I am And set free the soul I hide It will burst Into flames It will soar Without shame But fear is nesting inside me And mother sparrow is feeding its child In her warm embrace I feel so safe Even though this embrace had been Defiled Defiled I must end This dependence I must stand And face, alone The hell outside And my sanguinary war Within She takes me under broken wings And nurses me once again She keeps me blinded from what's real So I don't have to feel any pain And now I unfurl my wings It's my time to roam A choir of angels will watch from above As this hell becomes my home

Feelings I have never felt before Blind wishes Wills I have never had before Ashes to ashes I'm so cold My body's rotten Under the snow Everything freezes Now death is the nearest Death is close Live years under snow A cold overdose I'm so cold My body's rotten Under the snow Everything freezes Everything dies So cold this winter Within this bitter man Once led by a lie A yearning to die So please someone keep my warm Get me out of the snow I'm so cold My body's rotten Under the snow Everything freezes Everything dies With arms wide open I accept the frost And this frost will share my curse So cold this winter Within this bitter man Once led by a lie A yearning to die

The nether earth Where we drown in murky waters Were day and night are one And scarred eunuchs are never astray The nether earth Where we hunger in tears Where the pyres are vast And the mountains hide behind the mist Beneath the scorched earth Beneath the carved runes Beneath the bleeding skies Beneath eternal dunes The nether earth Where silence is our enemy Where we bury our children And neglect our elders The nether earth Where tyrants prevail Where slaves become martyrs And masters suffer the lash Beneath the scorched earth Beneath the carved runes Beneath the bleeding skies Beneath eternal dunes In shades of rotten trees We hide, eternally For we have hated the light For we thrive at night In shade of rotten trees We endure the solitude The forest embraces our fears And the ground soaks our tears There are no gods None but ourselves There are no gods Nothing but slaves There is no warmth Only frozen air There is no hope Only despair In shades of rotten trees We hide, eternally For we have hated the light For we thrive at night In shade of rotten trees We endure the solitude The forest embraces our fears And the ground soaks our tears Beneath the scorched earth Beneath the carved runes Beneath the bleeding skies Beneath eternal dunes

Every piece of my body shall starve It will collapse into nothingness Every piece of my soul shall perish And I will remain here, alone The woes of enslaved hearts May vanish in the cold air Embraced by a defiled womb Gone with the quiet wind Every piece of my body shall erode By long suffering of ages Every piece of my soul shall wither For I have hated the light The woes of enslaved hearts May vanish in the cold air Embraced by a defiled womb Gone with the quiet wind It is I who bring the silence Once lost, for doubts and fears It is I who seek nothingness Neglected by the years The woes of enslaved hearts May vanish in the cold air Embraced by a defiled womb Gone with the quiet wind

And love was my suffering Forever to endure And her pain was like equinox Black light, so pure And I grieved and mourned For love once lost And I left this tainted heart Buried in the frost And In her cold, bleeding arms I sought out solace And I craved for trust For her angelic face And I listened to choirs Chant for the deceased And I carried my eulogy Doomed to dwell in the mist In memory of her I built this mausoleum of… Sculptures carved in ruins Innocent children made of stone By rain-bleeding skies adopted Created to atone As leaves around them withered As my shattered heart grew cold I begged for nights to end For repressed woes to unfold Sculptures carved in ruins Innocent children made of stone By rain-bleeding skies adopted Created to atone As leaves around them withered As my shattered heart grew cold I vowed I will someday join her To embrace her, to hold…

By demons he is driven And the bells no longer ring In this garden he is decaying With weakness now he sings And so she brings him A glass, broken and stained So he can drink her blood And fall asleep Forever she remains Carved inside him Forever she is broken And the sky is so dim I don't deserve you My love, my end Lie to me I want this all to be over So the trees no longer bend Kill me In twilight his light shuts Darkness falls over the garden And the flowers wither away She stole away his Eden Now they lay hugged with each other And broken glasses rip their skins And they die with no remorse For they have forgave so many sins Forever she remains Carved inside him Forever she is broken And the sky is so dim I don't deserve you My love, my end Lie to me I want this all to be over So the trees no longer bend Kill me

I wade, silently In the murky waters Of Eden's wells Where enemies dwell I embrace the dark Of the drowning tears Of fear and loss Of winter's frost Of winter's frost I devour, slowly Gnaw their innards The children's dreads In safe fathers' hands Dead fathers' hands I, who only seeks the darkness The cold hands of departure I, who is dead but not fearless Cannot see through the fractures I, so lonely and so cold Still wade, still endure I, so empty and alone Wish to erase all that is pure
