Sovran

Clouds of defiance Over mankind they gently weep To this verge I collapse While God stays sound asleep Losing the balance I'm losing the hold of it all Make these trembling ghosts Not chase me anymore! Stars shine brighter Yet heavy lies the crown Distant still clutching In the blackness of it all And the candles burns out As I touch your heart - For treading the footsteps Of many sorrows passed And I yearn for the sun to set, For the curtain to fall This is all I am... All I have Fallen from luster To nothingness and scorn And fall dark veil Softly through the morn A haunted, starless sky, Fragile and oh so deep The dying softly wakes And smiles in painless peace Fallen from luster; To nothingness and scorn, And fall dark veil; Softly through the morn And the drumless beat, It dissolves into the mire - But you are sleeping, And a vacuum to my fire And I yearn for the sun to set, For the curtain to fall This is all I am... All I have Fallen from luster To nothingness and scorn And fall dark veil Softly through the morn A haunted, starless sky, Fragile and oh so deep The dying softly wakes And smiles in painless peace

We're leaving today After dust-ridden shutters close And heartbeats they rush Then to cease in your embrace These scars though-out the night Left no more fighting in us No tears to fill the void In a place even devils fled The wretched tongues Wording their pain on to me Until even tide enters There's no place out of here For grace to life me up every molecule whispered to make peace with the unreality I felt I was slipping downwards into darkness ...and in darkness I stayed until sadness closed its eyes Ships passing in the silvery night, Carrying this vicious, benevolent heart And in sadness we part... In the dark of you, in the dark of me Release these hearts from the turmoil Tired and cold, A tale since eons of old... So elusive this intemperance of escape So much has fallen and is falling still Into the hands of the ever madding crowd So we're leaving today As dust-ridden shutters close To site that glimmer of hope And breathe, if only for a while These stars that turned the tide Left no more fighting in use No hope to find the dawn In a place even specters dwell Ships passing in the silvery night, Carrying this vicious, benevolent heart And in sadness we part... In the dark of you, in the dark of me Release these hearts from the turmoil! Only Love before they drown... Tired and cold, A tale since eons of old... So elusive this intemperance of escape So much has fallen and is falling still Into the hands of the ever madding crowd

On my naked back A dance of the nocturnal sun The tall grass crawls around me; In adoration bowing Can I find you in your dark? Can you find me in your heart? There's a fallen statue in the wilderness It has found its way to your dreams Haunting the waking hours In nights' color with eyes like rain The shades beseech you My love increases you And summer freezes you into me... The cold fire suits you! A pale tortured blue blistering through A lifeless lover was the high mountain Where we tried to reach the stars, The moon, the ways beyond It was the purest love of all... I will raise a statue in the wilderness It will find its way to your dreams This will haunt you forever In nights' color with eyes like rain Yet I collect the stars you wept, Keeping them as my own To be lost in your eyes For all the sadness that we kept And I fail to realize it's you... The cold suits you! A pale tortured blue blistering through When there's peace within myself And everything else A pale tortured blue blistering through

Floating imperceptible cinders... Back and forth a stare over the cosmic veil As a star is dying nuclear winters' coming; Oh, entangled earth, distant eyes ablaze Interweave forever into your hunger As gravity collapses and light torn asunder Sowing the seeds, Then burning the fields We are burning the fields, Then sowing the seeds Nothing lives or dies here, Just calumnies of matter onto the dark It slips through our fingers, Unperceiving the emptiness We are burning the stellar fields I rise through debris and the dust Who is this sun? I always spoke to the stars I rise through debris and the dust Who was this sun? I always spoke to the stars Release me from myself, fading back into the womb, that stellar, ethereal tomb just waiting for my moment to matter and consciousness slept inside the stars and we must remember that we forgot there's an immunity boundless ahead of it all Further, always further from here These memories are continuing Ever onward before the dawn Seeing as time we can't escape I'm drifting and fading and choking in here These nightmares are continuing Aching glimpses always in hiding I'm begging, begging you for hope I stumble through the rugged door; The crater of my being Watching this heart graciously beating, Until it beats no more Interweave forever into your hunger As gravity collapses and light torn asunder We are burning the stellar fields... I rise through debris and the dust Who is this god? I always spoke to the stars I rise through debris and the dust Who was this god? I always spoke to the stars I rise through debris and the dust Who is this god? I always spoke to the stars Debris and the dust... Who are these gods? Debris and the dust... They came from the stars!

No light finds me Perish like the setting sun No truth defies me Unburdened like the fallen one I'd give you my love But it's freezing cold My lips ever sealed And the things I have done Are slowly growing old, Yet dying to be healed No heart guides me Frozen in the depths below No fear leaves me I'm haunted by a distant soul She gives me her voice She gives me her soul Yet demons in my view As fear breaks down I weep to understand I was already you Living in a circle of decay Where morn remains the night Under these starless skies Love's out of sight Breathe carelessly, Be all you feared as a child See, it's only me And not the heavens Coming down on you No light finds me She gives me her voice She gives me her soul This angel in my view As fear breaks down I weep to understand I was already you We were living in a circle of decay Where morn remains the night Under these starlit skies Love marks our flight Farewell!

All the tears that you cry won't awaken me When the devils lay dormant inside The blood in my veins has forsaken me As the angels around me die They die! Disheartened and cold And scars upon my soul I lost you in the silence Bleeding through the walls A sorrow came that ceased to leave And took you from my arms The dawn, a promise of beauty But in dusk our rose will die I'm forgetting how to face The sadness of your eyes Further I linger with nothing to give Faster I'm choking on the poison I breathe Spare me your judgment, and spare me your woes! This burden upon me is ruthless and cold Disheartened and cold And thorns upon my soul I found you in the nothingness; Haunted by the past Too late I heard the howling That broke your heart at last The moon, a promise of solace But the sun; a promise of scorn I'll cry for you no longer You don't need me anymore We're too tired to sleep, And these bodies confound As coldness awaits us The deeper I stumble Into your arms The harder we suffer As the empire falls -strange eyes are gazing -your hissing, smouldering tongue... -your reflection is broken... -yet the mirror is mine! I found you in the silence Bleeding though the walls A sorrow came that ceased to leave And took you from my arms

Where is the world I saw in your eyes? It lived through the night, then whispered goodbye The cuts in your skin and the red in my eyes This winter inside is crushing me now I am alone, I am scorn I can't remember to forget you I just weather the storm The love that I had, it drowned with the tide, stirring the waters where heartslay bare The cuts in your skin and the red in your eyes Enfolding this shame into despair Let me take the noose from our necks and carry us home Still so alive, even after you die, transcending with time We're just two cripples who fail to belong Yes, we are two cripples... But we need to hold on From this flesh my spirit longs to break away Did you ever feel this cosmic circumstance was never enough? Wake me slowly if ever at all Wake me slowly or watch me fall The life that I had is gone with the tide Watch me fall Another deception, I whisper good-bye The cuts in my flesh, the red in your eyes Watch me fall These demons inside, they die with me now

You cannot hide from a grace already perceived that's a fierce grace indeed! and you cannot hide a tree this is growing valiantly stretching for the stars angels weep as they count your scars These rivers of blood - Fields scorched to ask Lament of life: A love-song We all share our sorrows In light suspended... Smiling at the ever dying sun. Flakes of snow are melting On the top of your eyes; Shedding heaven's stars The tracks we left Almost buried now... This is a beautiful place! Here Cassiel wedded winter So man could grieve So man could see These trees are dark and old In solitude unified... Licking the ground, tasting the rough Cold wind, so man could breathe There's no masquerade in your silence, just pages filled of Winter the seeds of ascendance are hiding... let's drench the hours! These wastelands of dusk - Oceans bled and barren Lament of life: A love-song The only death awoken; A fear transcendence, Keeps us from the rapture of one And the blood of the sphere It emptied their mouths... Drowning the world Hammer me as pillars! Veiled from creation unchanging, Patching the holes and the cracks Tightening the rope around your necks And we see mankind aimlessly breeding. Desperately bleeding Erasing you, erasing me from here - So tired, so tired... I need to feel the freezing blue Leave me here! Let the coming of spring Carry me back to earth. Leave me here!

Awake in a slumbering world As structures outside cave in So harbor us, sweet sorrow This lonely, exquisite hollow Oh, mother on conscious dark sails... In your theatre of sirens, hear us! They see us weeping the newborn horizon We are here split to two, With love and defiance From the distance they came, Covered in ask There's no hope in this lifeless void Which aired of parasite tongues Oh, mother on conscious dark sails... In your theatre of sirens, hear us! They see us weeping the newborn horizon We are here split to two, With love and defiance As a speck in the cosmic ocean you sail Trapped in ill-shaped tales with your grin And your gods of death They see us weeping the newborn horizon We are here split to two, With love and defiance They see us weeping the newborn horizon They are here in spirit and flesh With love and defiance
