Skyward’s the cypress Casting its shadow on Long lost horizons Caressed by myriads of Lights on the surface Tracing a path like a Million of candles Over the plumbeous lake Silver iris Gaze into me Light your flame and Spread your wings and guide my way Be my sin and salvation Warm the shelter, dark the road I tread with you, at candle light Vicious the cycle Barren the sight of the Hills full of lanterns Swaying to the winds of the Breath of the mourning Pillars their trace drawn on The clashing streams when You still rose night after night Silvеr iris Gaze into me Light your flame and Sprеad your wings and guide my way Be my sin and salvation Warm the shelter, dark the road I tread with you, at candle light Spread your wings and guide my way Be my sin and salvation Warm the shelter, dark the road I tread with you, at candle light

In a night of wind, on the piers, under grey skies There I will sing my last farewell Down by the haven, holding my parting glass I will set sail to the unknown I will leave no time for your dry tears To fall on the surface of this sea of mine Broken as I may be, I’m broken the way I earned And I’ll chant to the moon with voice of storm My departure song Whirlwinds and tidal waves reunite by the harbor The bell now sounds eerie in the wind The frozen eyelids of the silent figurehead Share my same blank, cold stare in the abyss I will leave no time for your razors To fall on this tattered, deep red skin of mine Broken as I may be, I’m broken the way I earned And I’ll chant to the moon with voice of storm My departure song Broken as I may be, I’m broken the way I earned And I’ll chant to the moon with voice of storm My departure song

The hand opens and The ashes leave a trail in water “Drown with me, suffocate Take my hand, be mine” Screams the voice beyond the surface Legs collapse as the recurring Sounds of her grow louder “Come with me, one more time Tears won’t heal what’s long gone” Caws the raven from the laurel “Lay your soul Upon this hole And feel again whole” “Keep me inside your spires” Sang the Dove and fell in love the Serpent “Show me a way through winter” Said the Demon and gave his heart the Angel Feathers fall As the silence breaks itself While shattered pictures of yesterday faded by sunlight Still reflect inside the river Fatalist, the whispers of the fragile bird turn darker Failing to comprehend Signs of the broken Soon the serpent spit her venom “Lay my soul Upon your throne To feel again whole” “Keep me inside your spires” Sang the Dove and fell in love the Serpent “Show me a way through winter” Said the Demon and gave his heart the Angel “Lay my soul Upon your throne To feel again whole” “Keep me inside your spires” Sang the Dove and fell in love the Serpent “Show me a way through winter” Said the Demon and gave his heart the Angel

Gazing at the dark sky, broken with wide eyes And facing by myself this sleepless night of mine And in the ocean chant I recognise a child’s cry Is it the waves upon the anchor or my mind? Stern are the words of the sailor Lost his sea route Broken the hands of his compass And like a lighthouse I’ll pyre as the most fiery star in the sky Guiding the way Close to the stars, yet so far Concrete roots, eyes of void, blear glass Lost to fear, stretched out wings We cast our light from thе lighthouse Suddenly through the mist I spot a sign, torn whitе sails Entrusting mirage selves into the flame we bear For we are ever human, never near the astral warmth But still we find our end in guidance of the lost Lights in the distance ignite From far away Constructs of loss we were made then Now like lighthouses We’ll pyre as the most fiery star in the sky Guiding the way Close to the stars, yet so far Concrete roots, eyes of void, blear glass Lost to fear, stretched out wings We cast our light from the lighthouse Close to the stars, yet so far Concrete roots, eyes of void, blear glass Lost to fear, stretched out wings We cast our light from the lighthouse

A lullaby of waves, embraces Stuttering and shimmering, cold light cuts my eyes Reveries it draws in coral, as I descend And forgotten seems the stone, forever cast upon my head Soon the glimmer-made delusions fade into the blue Countless tombstones constellate the grim desert below While my right to bathe in sorrow slowly drags me down As I find myself so weary I wear the heavy crown On the thronе, who will dare to bring me down? The drownеd will take his place In the court of misery He will then ask the fool “Am I the king?” The drowned will take his place In the court of misery He will then ask the fool “Am I the king?” It seemed like a meteor was falling down Over my head, in the sea, through the waves This auburn inferno, the fiery dark clouds The setting sun taught me a new way to shine

While my crying tears touched the water I found myself in the blue Held by the hands of a stranger Then the island just tore him from me Silvery clouds In the lowering sky Wrote our names in the wind For we are stormbound And we are forever free For we are the sons of the maelstrom The silent abyss For we shall see beyond the storm Our way through the stars In chains awaits the angler Once free he’ll embrace the abyss And there will seek the maiden No lantern will make her see Silvery clouds In the lowering sky Wrote our names in the wind For we are stormbound And we are forever free For we are the sons of the maelstrom The silent abyss For we shall see beyond the storm Our way through the stars The wind still shakes the laurel Its leaves dwell into those waters The rain still falls, unbroken Ever blind, still you taught me to see For we are stormbound And we are forever free For we are the sons of the maelstrom The silent abyss For we shall see beyond the storm Our way through the stars For we are stormbound And we are forever free For we are the sons of the maelstrom The silent abyss For we shall see beyond the storm Our way through the stars

And then the broken sky fell down Upon the tower in the sea Beyond the shattered veil of clouds It stood a spire of locust grey Flesh-craving, ravenous The parasites crawled down my spine Prophets of a sinful virus Callous, bit inside my eyes The tower led the way Gave us wings that we deserved And then the tower spoke to me With aether voice With broken lips From the sky it came the vermin The swarm soon engulfed the tower Frail the wind stood silent in the storm Descending on the sea Grim the howling of the spectre Clashed upon a brightful lantern Fire came and sealed the sacred oath Arkangelos Despite the monster’s cry The insects slighted its vitreous call Loud as horns their humming wings Still dragged the moths inside the flame And then the wailing wraith Was thrown inside the ocean’s mouth Its face a mask of terror As it saw the tower stand The tower led the way Gave us wings that we deserved And then the tower spoke to me With aether voice With broken lips From the sky it came the vermin The swarm soon engulfed the tower Frail the wind stood silent in the storm Descending on the sea Grim the howling of the spectre Clashed upon a brightful lantern Fire came and sealed the sacred oath Arkangelos Tower, let me in And I’ll be home Lover, I left my warmth To feel you close From the sky it came the vermin The swarm soon engulfed the tower Frail the wind stood silent in the storm Descending on the sea Grim the howling of the spectre Clashed upon a brightful lantern Fire came and sealed the sacred oath Arkangelos

I can see the wound beyond your rogue vermillion eyes But can you see the swarming shards of glass embracing me? Force your fingers down my throat till I no longer breathe If I’ll hold you will you pull me in your gravity? Take me under, break me down, until I’m on my knees Cut my eyelids make me see, so I can tell your dew from the frost Encaging the leaf under your shy and righteous cry You just leave your wet upon my skin as you dry away Force your fingers down my throat till I no longer breathe If I’ll hold you will you pull me in your gravity? Take me under, break me down, until I’m on my knees Cut my eyelids make me see, so I can tell your dew from the frost Force your fingers down my throat till I no longer breathe If I’ll hold you will you pull me in your gravity? Take me under, break me down, until I’m on my knees Cut my eyelids make me see, so I can tell your dew from the frost

Wandering these roads of silence, the twisted spires behind The shattered glass enlights a raven, unholy, broken, mine Soon with dawn arrived the cold breeze, and then the awry clouds Drops like knives dripped down from angels, made of stone and scars Rain, soak my flesh, and they won’t Tell the tears from your sweet caress Burden, cut, weed out, the flower Thriving from these wounds Black crows sing, pushing the thorns of memories That rain down on the roof tiles now Guiding my steps home Walls, they lie, they close on me, while I fall On knees that bear the direful sin Of sealing my red eyes Ebony, razor-like feathers run across the sky It may be the mind of someone weary, they stare at me, deride Rain, soak my flesh, and they won’t Tell the tears from your sweet caress Burden, cut, weed out, the flower Thriving from these wounds Black crows sing, pushing the thorns of memories That rain down on the roof tiles now Guiding my steps home Walls, they lie, they close on me, while I fall On knees that bear the direful sin Of sealing my red eyes So why would you lie? For wings of angels, for your pride? So why would you cry? For wings of angels, for your pride? You are guidance, my unbroken resilience You are my graceful maiden of rain You are guidance, my unbroken resilience You are my graceful maiden of rain

And through the yard I walked under the lamplights Petrichor rising from this heavy soil Under the nails and inside the bones The autumn fog found its way Take me, soothe me Pull me in your embrace Moonlight Lay your head down child I won’t leave you now Star-looking stains drawn by tears crashing down A pulsing choir in the white light fades And you drift away As it sings your last requiem Near the stone walls, I remember, I longed for Your scent from the laurels, a fragment of you Shrouded in mist and weaved in that night Your winter claimed you from me Take me, soothe me Pull me into your stare Moonlight Lay your head down child I won’t leave you now Star-looking stains drawn by tears crashing down A pulsing choir in the white light fades And you drift away As it sings your last requiem And I could not see the difference right then and there Between shivers of cold and letting the cold inside And was it really the tired, dreary look of the neon lights That drew the acceptance smile on those fiery lips of yours? On that night of November you just chose to slip away And until the light will take me I’ll face the absence of you And as the moon sets behind the mountains over the lake So there you still lie, just forbidden to be seen
