Fallensun - The Wake Of The Fall lyrics



Tracks



02. The Language, Death, Eternal

I feel the tension created again, to begin descent
Black is this day, for another to wait in an emptiness hole
Horizons foreseen that bring forth the death season, the replacement of all with decaying life
I feel the sorrow in the breath of the wind
The annual shedding of soul

I feel the cold
As the darkness of night closes in
As the sun disappears
I know each day will be more dark

We all face dilemma - the language: Death, eternal
Floating away with the falling leaves - the festering darkness of fall
The emptiness that carries - like a soundless symphony
Death reclaims us all in the shedding of soul

Fading away are the pieces of life
As once complete, eventual dissolve
The sparking of fires dying out in the mind
The memories blacken with time
This weakening resonates within
Released finality of this plane
Purified in a moments calm

I surrounded myself with trees, and the trees surround me
I hear the somber song and feel the death in the wind
I can feel the seasons cold death that emanates
In my spirits cold tears, the dying flame of the soul
To my knees I fall and watch a Fallensun fade

Cold tears
Disappearing
Ever fading
Evermore

03. The Wake Of The Fall

This darkness insanity
Always pacing towards the end
Approaching the sear
Sordidly burning the endings of nerves
Unconscious divine
The arrival of fates' grim, churning of dread
The ending of bliss
Emotions were blackened amidst the most trying of times

Alone in the dark I sit with my fingers clawing, digging into my head
Left with the memories that have haunted me now for a thousand nights
Lashing of failures - a surging, contagious, anxious, beaten aura of loss
All wonderment gone, nothing left of the spirit to die

All blackness sustained
Martyrdom in the mirrors reflection of loss
So empty this shell
This mortal coil in the last flickering arc

Black is the stone that casts the darkest shadow
Black is this day for another to wait

The blackness sustains in this hollow as all thoughts converge
A Parasitical threat, breeding unrest
To get in line for the purge

Unequivocal mind
Body in wait for the atrocity

Black is the stone
It casts a colourless shadow
Black is this day for another to wait
Blackened the stone
It holds the hopeless sorrow
Black is this season for another to wait

You were always there
To cast the first and last stone
Unrequited in the darkness of mind
You were always there
To cast the blackest stone
Unrequited in the dark of mind

04. Searching The Darkened Skies

Fate has demanded the sentient
To carve a piece in time
All resistance is felt from the consciousness
The constancy failing in jest

Emptiness woven, I peer beyond the ending
You're searching the darkened skies for signs of life, the somber lie that has paralyzed
As memories flash with searing pain
The echoing of death winds repeating again
The vanishing point has been left in the wake of that year - the year that truly changed it all

Forever changing all

Levelling all defences down - I falter like withering leaves
Clandestine grave of departed youth
Body and soul set to the dying time
Becoming one with the season - becoming the fall

The honour - the martyr
Made to never change
Disengage the ending
Laid to rest

This pain seems never ending
As you stare into the depths of my heart
Do you see what you came looking for?
For I am no longer there
You'll find that existence is fleeting as you stare into the depths of my soul
An existence withheld, for it was never there

05. Beyond The Grave

Carrying the past in motionless trance as I grieve
Invoking the void as I stand in burial reprieve
Ascension of pacing descent - the all too familiar surrounding my needs
A Fallensun flickers in tow, the shining recedes

An egregious beckoning
To the slab is a soul torn apart
All thoughts travelling too far
Clawing their way to the edge

No solace is found within and beyond the grave
The light becomes dimmer inside, in an altered life
Feeling the shiver of death in life, the eyes becoming more blank with time
Reckoning draws to a close, compressing all frailty into a vice

No lost cause for the broken
Pain for healing the pain
Reaching out has become all mundane
Still the drowning in shallows, reaching an elegy's end
Reborn futility in martyred rebirth

Oh, how the light used to shine
Oh, how the voice used to sing
Oh, how the reality of death was nowhere to find
I still long for change
I still long for warmth
I still long to grasp those who blessed us with their glowing presence

I see fate's warning in shadows
As I reach the elegy's end
I hear reckoning following behind
