1. ETERNAL WINTER

A prophecy arose, of the storm that would end all
They warned it would come with death and despair
With the apocalypse inevitable, prepare for mortality
No time to fortify the storm is here

It came with ice wind and snow freezing everything in its wake
The fortunate ones died early for the days to come were unbearable
A continuous fight for survival as animal insticts return
Collect essentials and find a place to stay these were my priorities

I don't want to die here, not like this, but I fear the end is near
The arctic temperatures make it hard gather supplies but I am on my last log, I won't survive.
Trudging through the cold my body is numb, what am I doing alive?
Staggering back to shelter, the weather is too brutal, there I lie

As the strong winds whip my frostbitten skin
I see nothing but darkness, void of life, have I died?
I want to awake from this nightmare, tonight
Do not deny me this right, the right to life

I awoke to a blinding light, where am I?
I walked out of a cave into a frozen tundra, I survived
A landscape of ice, words cannot describe
Was I a lone survivor, or are there more?


2. DAWN OF THE THIRD HORIZON


The falling leaves mark the changing of the seasons
Too soon for me I fear I’m unprepared
Clouded skys and red horizon as the sun sets
The fog comes pouring through the trees
Once calm waters now thrash violently around
This is only the beginning

The sleepless nights to come, awake and shivering cold
Perennial torture, that could shatter the soul
Inhabitable lands, home to no one
A dead zone on the earth, how has this been done before
Dawning my furs I close my eyes

This fire that I build burns brightly in the night
Its warmth ill miss in the coming months
The flames flicker off the barren trees, taunting
Illuminating mist that surrounds me
Fallen leaves lay only to decay
Scattered reminders of these dreadful days

The sleepless nights to come, awake and shivering cold
Perennial torture, that could shatter the soul
Inhabitable lands, home to no one
A dead zone on the earth, how has this been stood before
Dawning my furs I close my eyes

Exiled on this unforgiving plain
Years of survival have taken their toll
I wish this torment on no man
Thoughts in my mind make no sense
Emotion nor language exist
Only primal instinct
The will to survive


3. FORGOTTEN WITH TIME

As water becomes ice
So rivers cease flow
The gears of time corrode
Contemplation of infinity beyond me

The fringe of nothingness
Hopeless breath frozen in the air
Become forgotten words never to be heard

A shrill wind only remains
Engulfed with whispers of ruin
The hourglass cracked, sands expire

Temporary is existence and swift is the end
Forever extinguishing the song of the soul

Fighting demise with no avail
Relinquishing the spirit
Relapse into nihility

Time, the anguish of it
Torn from in it an instant.
This era's, events are tragic
Life valued as an object.
Aeon, of a universe cold
Worthless names will be forgotten.
Epoch, of nothing begins
Lost is the hope of revival.
Once bound, by these limits
Stellar chaos erupts.
The sun, reduced to ashes
Brings the sky into black.
The end, if one does exist
How could there be forever.

Oceans of stars colide
The destruction lights the sky
All matter concentrated into one
Explosion dispurses lifes fragments
Reassembly imopossible as this light fades

Black is the void that holds all
Forgotton with time
Forgotton is time
