THE CALL OF DEATH’S CLARION
The call of Death's clarion
Evokes me with persistence
The sound so mesmerizing...
Needless is the resistance
Cold... Forgotten...
Languishing... Forsaken...
I am ready for darkness
So silently the night encloses me
Feeling so heartless...
My soul becomes filled with dark eternity
The call of Death's clarion
Evokes me with persistence
The sound so mesmerizing...
Needless is the resistance
Numb... Neglected...
Abandoned....
And when the light has died
I slowly close my fatigued eyes
Taken by the endless night
I am ready for my demise...
My demise...

IN THE ABSENCE OF LIGHT, DEATH GAZES
The light is abandoning
This void leaves nothing...
Nothing but sheer coldness...
and eternal darkness
Feeling so unfulfilled
To mortality tied
Longings are killed
Death stares at me bright-eyed
Feeling the killing aridity
Overblown and withered existence
Plunged in a swamp of absurdity
In the dusk of Death’s countenance
Joint dislocates from joint...
This is the final point:
I feel myself fall to pieces
Everything now decreases...
The weary light of the candle fades
I close my eyes and cross my arms
As Death slowly lifts me
From the stone-cold bed

IN SOLITUDE
I solitarily walk this night-veiled path
Morbid shapes mysteriously dissolve in the fog
The sky is filled with a blaze of wrath
I arise from the slumber of this unfathomable smog
I gaze at the mist entwined horizon
My blood feels dry and crumbly
Like the ground beneath my feet
That walk into the night and I don’t look back
Seeing – the gate of death
Feeling – the despondency
Hearing – the toll of death
Tasting – the blade of destiny
I solitarily walk this night-veiled path
Morbid shapes mysteriously dissolve in the fog
The sky is filled with a blaze of wrath
I arise from the slumber of this unfathomable smog
I gaze at the mist entwined horizon
My blood feels dry and crumbly
Like the ground beneath my feet
That walk into the night and I don’t look back

LINGERING VOIDWARDS
Overcome by despondency
I carve my name in your skin
Overcome by melancholy
The knife now lies in your hands...
Don’t weep for me…
For my soul is already gone
Nothingness, void, empty...
Everything seems forlorn
My eyes, in black veiled
My flesh feels like steel
My blood, cold and paled
My body... decayed
It seems you are so absent and distant
Yet you are rambling in the valley of my mind
And the depths of my reveries, so persistent
Lost in time’s wisps of haze, so blind
Overcome by despondency
I carve my name in your skin
Overcome by melancholy
The knife now lies in your hands...

WITHERED
Everything is now grim and grey
A void without perspective
Feeling so bleak and astray
A hollowness without perspective
A landscape of desolate graves
The bolts of the earth
Grey in different shades
Secluding the dead from life and its birth
Everything is now grim and grey
Feeling so bleak and astray
A hollowness without perspective
A landscape of desolate graves
The bolts of the earth
Grey in different shades
Secluding the dead from life and its birth
The withered wood of a dead tree
Your coffin to be
Encircled by a cold dense fog
As a hazy and intangible tog
Here, your sanguinary footmark ends
Here, your bleak existence descends
The withered wood of a dead tree
Your coffin to be...
Here, your sanguinary footmark ends
Here, your bleak existence descends
Now, death takes the helm
Now, you forever enter its realm
Enter its realm...
