Melancholia
I'll venture far, I'll reach down to my soul tonight Through the soil, a journey through dark and light Black bile, flames flicker like lightning I hear the dead howl I hear them screaming at the sundown of the world They crawl - will they stay or will they come back? Ephemeral soundscapes, everlasting beauty and despair Spirits slipping out from my dreams Ephemeral landscapes, melancholy lingers in the air Nostalgia spilling forth from my dreams My mind is the staircase I'm going up and beyond, I'm falling down Black pools, I travel through time Bordering on the edges of insanity The time is up, the time is gone, it's infinity Will I stay or will I come back? Hierophany A temple from below It's the magic that I know Eucharist and rebirth A blessing from the goddess herself Awakening the shadows of my self

Gliding through the phantom landscape<br/> The place forlorn of hope<br/> I saw her standing there, pallid in skin<br/> Lifeless and ready to elope<br/> Closing in on her like a shadow sweeping<br/> I bowed and I took her by the hand<br/> Under the starless sky<br/> Awake but sleeping<br/> Grievously seduced by the damned<br/> Enter your final hour<br/> Feel the cold, the demon's touch<br/> The cosmic order now profoundly disturbed<br/> In a moment's over shadowing of the light<br/> <br/> Here be dragons<br/> Here be death<br/> Here be the sombre that have felt the Devil's breath<br/> Don't you hear the distant howling of the wolf?<br/> <br/> Death comes slow to you eternally<br/> Over oceans of time inexorably<br/> 'Cause you'll feel, you'll feel the power<br/> For the blood is the life<br/> Undead<br/> Unhallowed<br/> Unclean<br/> <br/> Here be dragons<br/> Here be death<br/> Here be the sombre that have felt the Devil's breath<br/> Here be dragons<br/> Here be death<br/> Here be the sombre that have felt the Devil's breath<br/> Don't you hear the distant howling of the wolf?

Familiarity trickles down through the narrow corridors of faith<br/> In the pathways of Jerusalem I breathe<br/> Nature's grace, radiantly glowing cold, she pours the wine onto my flesh<br/> I bathe in the stream, I wash away the ash<br/> <br/> Throughout the vastness of time - Alone<br/> Throughout the vastness I climb - Alone<br/> <br/> Twice born - blood is spilled from the cups of ghosts<br/> Twice born - close the eyes to recieve the host<br/> Precedence is given to the dreamer<br/> Precedence is given to the brave<br/> <br/> I catacombs I dance the dance of Death, I run away from fear<br/> In illo tempore, was that so, where do we go from here?<br/> We are naked in the darkness, we are one<br/> Yet there is solitary in the vast expanse of mind, the threshold to eternity<br/> We all find ourselves wandering through the pastures of Arcadian splendor<br/> Are we going to the time before time? Remember, remember...<br/> <br/> Throughout the vastness of time - Alone<br/> Throughout the vastness I climb - Alone<br/> Ever closing in on the shadows of the strange attractor<br/> A return to a paradise that we have lost

There is a way to break the glass<br/> I found a hole in the black mass<br/> There is a place where one will learn to see<br/> To glimpse the vast<br/> <br/> Senses speak of something grand<br/> Just beyond the grasp of hand<br/> A place within to wich I wish to return<br/> I stand on the threshold<br/> Focused and prepared to burn<br/> <br/> Winds, take me on!<br/> I wring my body to lose control<br/> Through the music's violence I bare my soul<br/> Ill Will is the fuel that has to flow<br/> The Opposition<br/> The friction that allows minds to grow<br/> <br/> This inflation makes the spirit lift<br/> As if in chaos, ghost from my flesh may shift<br/> For moments may the senses lose their way<br/> Its being's grasp<br/> Then I am gone and flying free<br/> <br/> Winds, take me on!<br/> Moments of the vast and the great<br/> Well beyond both love and hate<br/> The humble eyes where all appears as one<br/> As if undraped<br/> <br/> Lift my soul, take me away!<br/> <br/> Unfolded wide is now the sky<br/> So the earth and so am I<br/> Winds, take me on!<br/> <br/> Of the world I am a son<br/> Through the world my will is done<br/> By my will I will become<br/> I am free<br/> I am gone
