Print Version


In the arms of rimed soil, lies the autumns last withered leaf
Land now bare and naed, awaits it's snowy sheet

And as the light still lingers, painting scarlet this barren scene
An old man sings his song of melancholy and relinquish

I'm a whirl deep in dark waters,
A stare in the shades of fir-trees
I'm riding above with north wind,
Herding the black clouds of rain
Mine is the kingdom,
Far from the moon to the sun
I am the elder,
Standing forever as one

And in that sudden moment, when everything's turned to still,
He abruptly breaks the silence, becomes one with longing

And singing ever stronger, nature joins as one with him
Fire in his eyes, universe under twisted grin

  • The Day It All Came Down
    "From now on there's an abscence of smile
    Foul voices welcome me to loneliness
    Graceful tunes on her lips have now ceased
    This winter's here to surpass all the hopes..."
  • Daughter Of The Moon
    "Trail amidst the snow-clad trees, winding is the way
    Sunless is the path we roam, bitter is the air we breathe
    Fell is the icy blast, coming from the hills
    Blowing through my ailing heart, wailing in the emptiness inside..."
  • The Moment Of Reckoning
    "If I only could I would
    Change everything
    Today is the day, the moment of reckoning
    For too long I've been hiding this truth within my chest..."
  • Under The Plaintive Sky
    "And so does the downhearted tune
    Resound through this murky night
    And the wind groan its wistful song
    For the ill-lucked dwellers in plight..."
  • Death Walked The Earth
    "Brought back from the silence
    As darkness whitened into a day
    Tried to weave the pieces together
    Force the past away..."
  • Disengagement
    "What solemnity can be found in this death?
    A traitor's smile, the honour of betrayal
    How comfort could be found in the dreariest of nights?
    What solace for guilt-driven mind, tarnished heart?..."
  • Closing Words
    "This will be for now and for ever the diverging of our paths...
    Now that this night has turned into a dawn
    I step aside from this path of grieving
    Left with all these things I never had chance to say..."
  • Song Of The Forlorn Son
    "Wretched is my lot here, mirthless is my fate
    Alone to face the cruel winters, endure the dreary cold
    What is there to hope for, what is there to seek
    For this forsaken child, for this forlorn son..."
