The Art of Coming Apart: Chapter V

I am closer to freshly earth below than to spirited air above Sure enough, to breath means to live But do i have any breath, any lungs? And above all i'm waiting and sharing tides for a deathless while Touching land like an anchor, irrevocably run aground admits the yet uncovered Heaven remains silent, ground talks in whispers Thou grand charmer-longing for this morbid flirt Eternal rest grant to me! 'Cause nothing seems as perfect as the art of coming apart Beneath the dead standing tree, all is covered with coal-black leafage Ground is gone... Somehow strange, i tough feel save I am counting static clouds, time and time again echoing the same line : "I envy the Calm" Am i immune to life? Thou sage of absurd! I am breathless furthermore I'm sleepless! I am nameless, lately i'm soulless! I am about to decide deadness, my inside-a Stygian darkness And above all i'm waiting and sharing tides for a deathless while Touching land like an anchor, irrevocably run aground admits the yet uncovered

(Drawn) into the muteness of denying the self The cold breeze of a moment of stillness is blowing grim and frightful, irreversible and iron-clad Just for one second, again... Motionless,static,frozen up breath, my thoughts-drifting into endless spheres of relentlessly burning fears Into my secret consolation-my apparent desperation Into my secret consolation-fragmentation of creation Alone, legs weak, with fear-barren and bleak Traced by somber, sighing shadows and roaring dust I am waiting while the star of sadness is standing still under this sinister red clouded skies, Where all tears are wept in silence Captured in a locked room... Shady grey shadows cover an icy wilderness, inside this madness, Inside bowels of dark endlessness, within this trembling abyss Motionless,static,frozen up breath, my thoughts-drifting into endless spheres of relentlessly burning fears And I am waiting while the star of sadness is standing still under this sinister red clouded skies, Where all tears are wept in silence

The days to come seemed so clear Another (ephemeral) flickering of bliss, Gleaming light like a kiss to mortal given They walk the treacherous trail and find themselves alone GO! Walk! Cause they're sinking down on knees when they close tired eyes and lips Nobody knows that they're down and out No one will ask what they need, although they bleed... although they bleed... SECOND WINTER Abandoned, regnant helplessness Over and over forced to hide sorrows many times Only the wuthering silence in that solitude overshadows this burning, breathing blackness Four winters are coming! Augury of commemoration's whithered flowers Four winters are drawning! Augury of commemoration's frozen flowers THIRD WINTER The hollow, The absence, Close to the tides of sadness Swallowing, dissolving into restlessness What remains is the shadow of themselves A bitter delusion, a shattered illusion disavowing itself, Turned out to be a distorted retrospection of bare existence FOURTH WINTER Just for one moment they felt the healing hand But the sunlight's blaze never reached (them) Hypnotized by burning fevers, Feeding the suffering Oblivious dreams devoured consciousness Soul absorbed...soul absorbed...soul absorbed... Four winters are coming! Augury of commemoration's whithered flowers Four winters are drawning! Augury of commemoration's frozen flowers The hollow, The absence, Close to the tides of sadness Swallowing, dissolving into restlessness What remains is the shadow of themselves A bitter delusion, a shattered illusion disavowing itself, Turned out to be a distorted retrospection of bare existence

What comes around unbound, This glorious feeling makes me oh so proud I'm still alive-yeah that's right Let's start a war, we'll win this final fight This is my tribute to the dead i hail I am your key to the underworld Cleanse my soul make me free from sin Welcome to the hours of suffering Hang 'Em high! Their rotten bodies up to the sky Beyond all imagination on the edge of pure damnation Extreme hatred-forget, forgive, no time to live The dead come back, turn my world to black A cold embrace buried in flames I'll bring your nightmares that will never end, My veins are injected with hate my friend! No forgiveness you can find in my eyes See the shadows of those... those who died! Staring into the empty sky When thoughts of death cross my mind Only forward never back Fear is just around, I'm not afraid Mass immolation, destroy the world-a new creation We'll never live together in harmony Listen to the sweet sound of my killing symphony Hang 'Em high! Their rotten bodies up to the sky Beyond all imagination on the edge of pure damnation Extreme hatred-forget, forgive, no time to live The dead come back, turn my world to black A cold embrace buried in flames This is my tribute to the dead i hail I am your key to the underworld Cleanse my soul make me free from sin Welcome to the hours of suffering

Hear the whispering of a slumbering cry You were never just a word in my life You were full of burning passion, a passionate longing for me A deep ocean of difference remained (once more), Just seas of ashes full of stabbing pain With the crowns of Thorns in my hand, memories in brilliant black, And the crown in my blood, so real what seems forlorn again All the sorrows in my mind will be passing these grey days And for what we've lost, for what we've never found, I will pray! Embraced by the rising of our black sun Illuminating all days at frigorific dusk In spectral coulours of tears reflecting memories all circling inside of me For the will to be, For the will to be, yeah for the will to be I can see, I can see through reality (I can see, I can see) circling inside of me Multiple monstrosities Evanescence forevermore, dissolving ember, It will ablaze once more I've seen these fading hands, Searched for the missing element Hear the whispering of a slumbering cry You were never just a word in my life You were full of burning passion, a passionate longing for me A deep ocean of difference remained (once more), Just seas of ashes full of stabbing pain With the crowns of Thorns in my hand, memories in brilliant black, And the crown in my blood, so real what seems forlorn again All the sorrows in my mind will be passing these grey days And for what we've lost, for what we've never found, I will pray! Evanescence forevermore, dissolving ember, It will ablaze once more

Here I march on the fields of forever, Back to where I once belonged I am in trouble, it's the same situation My flesh is weak but my will is strong This is the mask of all my fears, A never-ending torture has begun All the lost souls together-one by one Can you hear the crying winds? Monarch of my sin-this monument of hate shall begin! Beneath the burning sky, The clouds are shattered by the sun Into this blackened night, in a world beyond eternity Beneath the burning sky, The clouds are shattered by the sun Into this blackened night-a silence dressed in black Useless I was laid to rest, Haunted by the future of the past It's just the beginning! No hope is lost-in a time when autumn turns to frost Sorrow and pain, It's driving me insane At the end of the world, nothing will remain Beneath the burning sky, The clouds are shattered by the sun Into this blackened night, in a world beyond eternity Beneath the burning sky, The clouds are shattered by the sun Into this blackened night-a silence dressed in black Here I march on the fields of forever, Back to where I once belonged I am in trouble, it's the same situation My flesh is weak but my will is strong This is the mask of all my fears, A never-ending torture has begun All the lost souls together-one by one Can you hear the crying winds? Monarch of my sin-this monument of hate shall begin!

(In the year) 2078, far beyond earth Fatal mission: Trapping the so far unseen A short glance at the setting, Focusing on embattled field: Am I standing on its stamping ground Staring at the remnants of my predecessors? They sure once tried to hide in vain inside these walls, Waiting for the yet unidentified A still present tragedy: Imprisoned in a stranger's place A shade, a dreadful sound uncanny Yet fearless, longing for decisive trace After all I'm chosen... After all I'm chosen, placed amidst this fatal scene, A long way off on deadly mission: Trapping the (so far) unseen! Cold and damp, the musty smelling reek Rises from the shadowy path ahead Somehow... Weird... A ghostly welcome Unreal masks witness its every single step, Surfacing without a sound Now! Prepared to face the enemy... Defend-Deface-Defeat! Strong-willed, cold-bloodeness is my hope Deform-Defy-Delete! This creature with a single stroke After all I'm chosen, placed amidst this fatal scene, A long way off on deadly mission: Trapping the (so far) unseen! A short glance at the setting, Focusing on embattled field: Am I standing on its stamping ground Staring at the remnants of my predecessors? They sure once tried to hide in vain inside these walls, Waiting for the yet unidentified A still present tragedy... Everything seemed so far away... Perhaps it's only yesterday?

Eye for an eye, the battle rages on, Darkness shall arise! After all these years of nothing, What are you waiting for? Split wide open, the point of no return, Reflections of my inner flaws Traveling into nowhere, together, Distant voices (still) can be heard Hard to breathe, Forever gone The will so strong-(In) Seasons of tranquility Domination-Infiltration-Devastation Seasons of tranquility First, feel the pain (you) never realized The final hours has arrived The truth beyond, the mirror of my soul, Through flesh and mind I roam A stab in the back, never to forget, Shadows of the past Now the time as come, but your time is done You shall not weep, but you shall bleed Hard to breathe, Forever gone The will so strong-(In) Seasons of tranquility Domination-Infiltration-Devastation Seasons of tranquility Uninhabited final resting place, Terrifying screams filled with immortal hate Sorrow takes control of lonely moments I walk through closed gates never missed, Never opened Demonic souls on their way to hell, A farewell to all evil I damn the day when you were born, Your face will turn to stone! Are you afraid to hear the truth? I am the one, the same, the one insane Can you feel the blade (that) slowly tears your veins? I'll create cruel nightmares in your brain As I escape through the past-below the lights, When the deadly light touches my skin, My illusions are lost in broken mirrors I'll hide the truth behind my innocent eyes Demonic souls on their way to hell, A farewell to all evil I damn the day when you were born, Your face will turn to stone! Eye for an eye, the battle rages on, Darkness shall arise! After all these years of nothing, What are you waiting for? Split wide open, the point of no return, Reflections of my inner flaws Traveling into nowhere, together, Distant voices (still) can be heard Hard to breathe, Forever gone The will so strong-(In) Seasons of tranquility Domination-Infiltration-Devastation Seasons of tranquility ...tranquility
