1. MY ENDARKENED SELF

Inert embers flare
Disquieting omens
Inimical portends
My psyche beware

Here no breath of life
Nor near end in sight
Released to the night
My endarkened self

Harrowed evermore
Descent to despair
As yet unaware
My then blackened soul

Here no breath of life
Nor near end in sight
Released to the night
My endarkened self

Tangled thoughts reflect
Some unknown nature
A desperate creature
This tortured aspect

Tangled thoughts reflect
Some unknown nature
A desperate creature
This tortured aspect

Here no breath of life
Nor near end in sight
Released to the night
My endarkened self

Innocence unbound
Dark dream reified
Midnight’s chosen bride
My revenant found

Where no breath of life
The endarkened dwell
Where no breath of life
The endarkened dwell


2. MIND BOX

Pain has chipped the mortar away
My prison bars are ready to give way
I choose to stay inside a self-made cocoon
More nurturing than suffering these mortal wounds

Afraid of a life too empty to abide
I pray I forgive me

A whole reduced to human husk
I feed my own damnation
Captive in terror, hostage to mistrust
I feed my own damnation
I pray you leave me where I lay

Dropping my guard, my mind unlocks
Something has breached these mental blocks
Keeping me prisoner to my past
Forswearing escape, I hold fast

Afraid of a life too empty to abide
I pray I forgive me

A whole reduced to human husk
I feed my own damnation
Captive in terror, hostage to mistrust
I feed my own damnation
I pray you leave me where I lay

Out of desperation
There is no hesitation
Only resignation

Echoes of evocation
No silent convocation
For my own damnation

Afraid of a life too empty to abide
I pray I forgive me

A whole reduced to human husk
I feed my own damnation
Captive in terror, hostage to mistrust
I feed my own damnation
I pray you leave me where I lay

Seeing myself forever inside
I feed my own damnation
Wherein my darkest secrets bide
I feed my own damnation
I pray you leave me where I lay


3. ANNWYN

Where forever beauty sleeps return

Annwyn

May to you a gentle breeze convey
All that time would not permit me say

Annwyn
Annwyn

If only words without answer
Could fill the enormity of never

Candles o’er dark waters set out to sea
Drifting towards Annwyn at tide’s last turning

Taken by slumber to dreams of you
Has left me broken more than new

Annwyn
