lyrics

Reclaiming the time we have wasted waiting
Between the mud and rubble of our lives
we are survivors condemned to breathe among the dead
with hope born from solitude.

There´s no need to remove the blindfold
from those who walk in darkness
There´s no need to remove the blindfold
from those already blind

What if the illusion to overcome despair falls?
What if we have already uttered our final words?
what we set out to be when dreaming was worth it
is a sham to be forgotten

The world keeps spinning and here we are with nothing to behold
Submerged within this thickening fog where ambitions are dying hopes.
We die looking for the answers
written in the paths we did not wish to walk.

What if the illusion to overcome despair falls?
What if we have already uttered our final words?

To look up to the sky,
willing to break the fetters of fate
The need to scream, to howl like a light bearer
to reveal the way in the void of our soul

Reclaiming the time we have wasted waiting
Between the mud and rubble of our lives
we are survivors condemned to breathe among the dead
with hope born from solitude.

The world keeps spinning and here we are with nothing to behold
Submerged within this thickening fog where ambitions are dying hopes.
We die looking for the answers
written in the paths we did not wish to walk.

Fog envelops, and entombs our withered light
A pathetic shadow of its glorious birth
Awaiting burial within the cold embrace
Freed from the prison of
Desire

Swirling guitars, furious drums, vocals that at the same time howl from infinite distance and are right up in your head; everything put into dissonant form with the help of unconventional songwriting. This album is my personal key to the icelanding black metal madness that I've ignored for way too long! Lukas Kaufmann

PSA: if there was an album you heard a couple years ago and thought it was ok, listen to it again and you might love it. That's what happened to me with this album. I cannot fathom why it didn't stick with me back then. Same thing happened with Decoherence's Unitarity for that matter. Matten
