1. So Serene

...And I thought, "So haunting, is the grey mist"

As today's dawn brings tears to my eyes
(though they are tears of the harsh wind)
So painful are these thoughts
Of sombre hopes for absolute rest

...That I feel so surreal (and so serene)

Ah...that silver Queen
Her cool rays reach down to me
And I breathe one last sigh
As I remember those torturous days
(When we suffered)

The pain...
It is the scars that brought us
together
(Now we are healing, now we
are recovering
And you're falling deeper
and deeper Within yourselves

Ah...serenity

It is threats to trinity that inspired me
Winter's grace, in a cold embrace
It feeds me

...That is why I am feeling so serene

As today's dawn brought tears to my eyes
(tears not of woe)
So painful are these thoughts
Of sombre hopes for absolute rest
You know I feel so serene

As the grey mist dies away
to silent deserted hills
I bury my head in my hands

The faint echoes of false
belief Are heard no more
And are crying for
me in the far.




2. Moonlight Adorns

Now that the sun's trueness has waned
Now that the sun turns our skin red
Comfort me.

I miss the joy in your smiling face
As starved of leaves, the trees cry out
To the cruel poison sky.

All screaming to the cruel poison sky
Cry out.

Now that the sun's trueness has waned
Now that the sun turns our skin red
LISTEN...

Moonlight
adorns the
snow-filled churchyard
Misery never dies
As those memories never die.

Now that the sun's trueness has waned
Now that the sun turns our skin red
Now that our beautiful sun is burning us
Now that our beautiful mother is almost dead.




3. Visions (Of A Post - Apocalyptic World): Part I

Think of a horrific future forced to survive sheltered under-
ground.
These are imagined sounds of the world above.




4. Wilderness

To see those tears gleam in her eyes
I am so sadly mesmerized
I am nothing without you
So full of bliss about you

Angel...
Time is a wilderness
A vast desert of age

The sadness in your eyes
Lost faith
I realized why you cried
Now I realized why...

Angel...
Time is a wilderness
A vast desert of age

Chant my holy name
As the clouds descend
Storms blow by, and
Your name is written in the sand
So far away...

I see those tears gleam in her eyes
So sadly mesmerized
I am nothing without you
No, I'll never doubt you... oh, love

Angel...
Time is a wilderness
A vast desert of age

That sadness in your eyes
Lost faith
Now I've realized why.

- (Angel losing faith) -
You cried... "I fear for life"
I sighed...
Then you died

You cried...
"Why am I an angel losing faith?"




5. These Deepest Feelings

Her cold lips pressed against mine
As we stood and felt warmth from the burning embers
Those lips that sent into me the joy of a long walk
Through the cold forest in Winter's favourite days
...And those nights, those legendary nights.

I have always been willing to bleed for you.
Every night that we shared those deepest feelings,
Shared dark secrets... I always have.

Here again I feel that my painful thoughts are wandering
Into starlit, dream-like visions.
I can recall the pain of deep thought
Pondering life and destiny
Sometimes obsessed with the death of close friends.

(In Winter's favourite days)
Cherished and loved,
Still remembered
Are the ashes of smouldering embers.

My soul, my heart, my eyes are ablaze
In Winter's favourite days.




6. Aureole

Pale and ghost-like, the mist floats
Away from the stream, that through night and day
When I dream

Pours forth to the desolate darkness it's song
...All night long
Now the path of the morning sun is etched in earth
The birth of daylight

Aureole...
When viewed through the night-time haze
When cometh forth the rays
Aureole, I'm in a trance
Searching through memories of your radiance

The peak of the snow-capped giant
Is purpled in light
And the grass with the night dew
Is diamonded white
The stream...

Pours forth to the desolate darkness it's song
...All night long
Now the path of the morning sun is etched in earth
The birth of daylight

Aureole...
When viewed through the night-time haze
When cometh forth the rays
Aureole, I'm in a trance
Searching through memories of your radiance




7. Oceans Rise

The sun goes down
I close my eyes again
Thoughts collide, then entwine
I'm still searching

...And with the day's dying light
The divine will arise

...And with the day's dying light
The oceans rise

...And with the day's dying light.




8. Artemis

Now...
I reach into your - in your slumber, hear my call

God of dreams - in your sleep, the King am I

Mistress of the eve - Huntress...
Chaste and divine - Oh, Artemis...awaken

Mistress of the eve - Huntress...
For your caress, and your embrace
Will you, Artemis...awaken

Awaken

Oh, my love, your tears fall from the sky
A rain, a river, an ocean

You left a mist
At your fall, and the dawn
You're not forgotten

The morning dew reminds me of you
Your pale, pale face is so enchanting
...And we adore

In the sacred hours of love...
Awaken.




9. In Crimson Dreams

I've struggled to find the dimmest of candlelight
Under which to scrawl these morbid words

Through half-hearted and mortal innocent sacrifice
To dreams of the rising snake, beneath cimmerian skies
From leaves that fell under Autumn strain
To slowly dying embers, that crackle in the rain

I am dreaming crimson dreams of you

Oh, the scars carved in my body... I gave to you
The fires...
May your glory be jewelled
With gifts of armour, worn with pride, lost in battle
To the rings I wear that bear your name

I am dreaming crimson dreams of you

Have I ever felt this way before?
Have I ever dreamed that I could be inside of you?
Taste your ever sweet love
Bow my head at the sound of you crying?
I remember when I tasted your tears.




10. Heart Of Ebony

Alone, but for your Celeste
At your reverent feet, I rest
And plead forgiveness

I face the blinding sun
And ask for my last rites
Oh, Celeste... forgive me

Sunset
To bathe in your milky red radiance
Like a God
Illuminates, enraptures, captivates

Woe
The grey clouds are shedding tears
Oh, how they weep
I share their grief, and so do you
I know... and you know

It is clear the storms are everlasting

And forever...
The unspoken heart of ebony
The unbroken heart of ebony
The undying heart of ebony...

Seems to beat not for me

Oh, Woe...
The grey clouds cast a shadow overhead
The last sunset, your fall I dread

On bruised and bended knees
I throw my hands to my face
And I tear shreds of skin away, in vain

Forgive me.




11. Warm Summer Rain

As I reach my arms to you
Warm summer rain,
Will we never, ever breathe again?

As is yours, reality
Warm summer rain,
Will we never, ever breathe again?
