1. Watcher In The Water
From depths yet beholden, spirits chanting beneath
a lake of ancient grief. Thunder of the ages drowns
the day, bidden by the watcher in the water.
The pale moon floods the forest, yet the drowning
chasms feel it not. The reddened snow engulfs my
tomb as the watcher robs my grave to steal my smile.
The guardian returns Death's cold embrace. Unending,
She implores him. So near, yet unattained, for
eternity fears only tomorrow.
2. To Drown Beyond The Sunset / Perhaps Someday Softer Rains Will Come
Writhe in fear from the cavern of my dreams
Drown the crow in the sorrow he brings
Open my veins let the Death seep in
For with fear I kiss the burning darkness
Withdrawn screams of hopeless Death
Give way to silent whispers
The astral Sleep of Winter's Past
Flows frigid in my veins
Drown my years in crimson Tears
As I wash the Truth away
Crush the ancient stone-wrought wall
Final breath entombed within...
3. Nevermore
I'm shrouded in the Darkness from the Silence of your scream
Writhing in the agony from this unending Dream
Bound and gagged by torrid lies, I've been down that road before
Just like the hated Raven always croaking Nevermore
Incensed, ostrasized, misery never lies
Ever present birds of war, rest in peace Nevermore
Sadness reigns forever strong within these hardened viens
Giving less while taking more to quell the mind insane
Final Darkness brings the light, steals the Raven from his flight
Coming stronger than before, ever present birds of war
4. And Yet You Stare
Drown under the gaze of eternities past. So cold,
undying, swept under the falls by the spent candles
of a thousand years. For I have passed through the
valley and faded into the outer darkness; and yet
you stare...
5. In The Place Where There Is No Darkness
