2. Emptiness Portrait
Sorrowful nights consume all my love
And embrace me in your dying incense
Now my heart is cold and empty of being alone
So take my blood and drown away your shame
The deaths we live in life, many and many times
Dreams we loose… the masques we use
Twilight of life
Restless to die
Shading sorrow… bitter tears
This sick obsession for life
Through this gloomy feelings
That hide in my heart
(I have) Visions of death… my heaven is dark
Who stole my hope? Who hides in the skies?
I’m returning to the present
I’m back with these wounds in my heart
In a place between dream and life
I’ve found the passion for the nothingness
Since the winter came into my soul
The wind chills more than your cold words
The void became my nest, a coffin where I can rest
A world of savage feelings, a virgin forest to tame
A cadence of disillusions makes me fear the light
This fear of myself… love for death…
Twilight of life
Restless to die
Shading sorrow… bitter tears
This sick obsession for life
Through this gloomy feelings
That hide in my heart
(I have) Visions of death… my heaven is dark
Who stole my hope? Who hides in the skies?
3. Dormant Bliss
So restless…
Awakening from a dormant bliss
Weeping…
Shall I escape this misleading way?
Walking with my hands tied through the night
Even blindfolded I can see the darkness that covers me
The storm has come into my feelings
Freezing all images of delight
That could still burn in me
Walking with my hands tied through the night
Even blindfolded I can see the darkness that covers me
Sleepless…
My spirit craves for serenity
Haunted…
Memories hauled through my own blood
Walking with my hands tied through the night
Even blindfolded I can see the darkness that covers me
A lack of faith, hollowness inside me
A tune made of blood and tears
A faith closed within marble stones
4. Until the End
«I crave for your lips
Those hidden words I long to hear
But with strong desire
I still can’t break the walls of death»
Together we mourn our vanquished treasure
And still in death we pursue our death
«Those endless tears
That with the pain we grow together
Seems to have blessed
Our sinful love, with the grace of God»
But enslaved by time I await
For the grace of God to concede my death
It’s a never-ending pain I feel
To seek my love in revenge
To touch you is like a dream
That I face against eternity
«Still in graceful bliss / Still in doleful grief
I long to feel you once again
For the flame of sin
Will unite us until the End…»
5. Wrapped in Tears
I have walked through times in a wretched path
A twisted landscape appears before my eyes
For each face has a thorn hidden inside
And for each thorn a blood lace covers my eyes
My heart has grown weak and pale from this living
I’m but a shadow of what I long to be
Darkness descends upon my broken-laid world
A vision turned to dust and scattered by the wind
Awake me from despair
In solitude I rest
I long for your embrace to help me
Set me free
Loneliness has wrapped its cold arms around me
I’ve lost myself within this frozen shelter
My cries consumed me into agony
I lick this open wound still bleeding
I’ve become awake in my own dream world
And far away I’m carried into it
I care no longer for what’s real
Reality seems still unreal to me
Awake me from despair
In solitude I rest
I long for your embrace to help me
Set me free
Into oblivion I fall
To the abyss of my dream
I long to greet this bliss
Suffering is just a dream
