Requiem

grief
a requiem
who knows what’s lying past the gates
desires?
dark depths of the psyche
one of us gone astray
fall like a meteor
as we hold on to the past
and as you fall forever
your memory shall last
Stillwater River trembling in grief
may the spirits guide your way
until the waters enter the sea
until the tides wash our doubt away
a dark moon rising
sigils are cold
until your knowledge will unfold again
Stillwater River trembling in grief
may the spirits guide your way
until the waters enter the sea
until the tides wash our doubt away
there is a moment
in every dawn
when first light is spilled
and the waters will moan
the world holds its breath
you lived for the moment
you made us believe
that nothing’s meant to stay
with us, your legacy remains
with us, you will live for another day
none of us is getting out alive
and some things can’t be changed
every hour wounds
but only the last one kills
fear is contagious
just as death
when cold blood is spilled
live for another day
you left us more
than you ever tried to give
keep wandering on

A Dormant Peril
04:34
|

|
these memories are fragile
they come and go as the tides fall and rise
I watch the crashing waves
like tales of love and laughter
all erased over time
since then the land has broken
and all the skies have changed
still I could never rearrange
my life
suddenly altered
out of all color
out of my truth
the signs
are making me falter
in search of perspective
I'm chasing my youth
I should have known it back then
we should have known it better
after all the pain
among these tales of sorrow
I curse the night we killed the flame
I catch her scent in the pines
all washed away by the tides
I still regret I could not let her go
in time
I could not help it
a dormant peril
inside
all night
watching the fires
lying awake and
trapped in my mind
reshape the fabric of reality
as the Norns are weaving fate
my fingers deep within their web
becoming a weaver of eternity
restructuring
all that was
that is
that shall be
we will change
all that was
that is
that shall be
let us change
all that was
that is
that shall be
until then
we lie
we both lie
dormant

The Awakening
05:15
|

|
gasping for mouldy air, screaming a silent scream
wild eyes adapting to the darkness slowly
lying on stamped earth having trouble breathing
smoke burning in your eyes set on a fleeting light
there must be a reason, an explanation
fuck reason and get out, so let’s conjure
another spark is coming, enlightening your lives
the inspiration growing stronger as you choose your side
birthed in the dawn of an autumn’s day
we awakened a world
praise the Old Gods
a mystery awakening in you
there is always a place for one more
now the curtain opens
when you are on the edge
when you can hear the bells
have you considered to become someone else?
so always question
invalid images that might be just a projection
down on you when shadows match
have you considered to become someone else?
go
trust
step up
one step further
birthed in the dawn of
an autumn’s day
we awakened
a world
and a Goddess
may She bless our collective mind
as long as inspiration stays
praise Her image
that’s the spirit
resurrected and invoked
Hekate, guide our souls
in case of doubt
always question
disturbing images just rescued from the ashes
breathe
trust
focus
burn
lose yourself in the dawn
another spark is coming, enlightening your mind
the inspiration growing stronger as we choose our life
io heka io ho
io heka io ho
io heka io ho
abre camino
as I soar high
and I soar wide
I become my words
by dint of magic I become my inner lore
that has been sleeping deep inside
whooooah
are you sure you are awakened?
then remember this day
out of the void
out of nothing
we created something great
beneath the waters
in the air
all around us
in our faith
we’ve awakened another lore
you shall long for even more
