1. A STORM (A JOURNEY IN GRIEF PT. 1)

Waves clash, Raging seas
Storms rise, Storm arise

Taken by a force of time to find a peaceful land
His dreams were always filled with pride,
Places where he could find his bride

So he left the shores, put his life behind
Set the sails, to honor the gods of the seas
Making his way now, into his future to be

Oh, waves guide him through the storm
Let him see the shores of the promised land
Oh, ancient storms

The darkening of sapphire skies
Dark clouds now gather the nights

He a man of loneliness travels in tranquiled emptiness
Cold winds guide him on the sea,
Approaching his aim, to be free

He holds his hands above the water
The black ocean caresses the hull
Lightning flashing, his hopes all fading
Stormy waves pounding against the vessel

A storm in the autumn

A storm in the autumn bringing despair
The waves of the ocean, a sad man they tear
Lifted above him, his wishes were heard
Now sailing onwards with the sign of the gods

Oh, waves guide him through the storm
Let him see the shores of the promised land
Oh, ancient storms

He a man of loneliness travels in tranquiled emptiness
Cold winds guide him on the sea
Approaching his aim, to be free

Oh, waves guide him through the storm
Let him see the shores of the promised land
Oh, ancient storms

A storm


2. EMPTINESS

Abandoned, the darkness is there
Surrounding this bitter mind
It dwells within sorrows ways... Sorrows ways...
My darkness is there

Embraced by my own fears
I am left here alone
Tidings wash my life away
Loneliness comes from the eternal emptiness...

This numb heart creates the pain
Pain just impairs my state
Nothing sooths my bleeding wounds

Noone’s there to uphold me,
desperate in my demise
Nothing’s there to solace me,
tears of pain falls in emptiness...

The darkness is there
Surrounding this bitter mind
It dwells within sorrows ways... Sorrows ways...
My darkness is there
In my heart there’s just emptiness...


3. GATHER THE COLD (FOR THOSE ENDED DAYS)

Turning towards the cold place of joy
Your fumes are all exhausting me

The blood on the ground is a proof of your scum
As sympathy belongs to those ended days

Anxiety for treasures – Sacrifice for powers
Hidden in our hearts – Placed within disgust
I free them all – You'll never be free at all

I gather the cold moments of life
I gather the winds that caress
A winter I descend
A winter shall descend

Now a dreamless desire we have found
Cautious I must lie down to rest
The forgiven incarnates this sound
Your hatred here is wasted

Come feel my lust – I have no desire
Here's my wealth – Keep it yourself
Taste of my anger – I cut you down
Inside me it's warm – I gather the cold...

I gather the cold moments of life
I gather the winds that caress
A winter I descend
A winter shall descend

I gather the cold for those ended days


4. FORGOTTEN IN SILENCE

As our feelings stays unshared
I will remain rejected from you
And so I stand here,
Forgotten in silence
