Fine
01:22
|
|
||
|
Everybody knows the pain loneliness brings, but when everyone's alone I think that everybody sings
And if everyone's alone all at the same time, everyone might sing but I think everyone would die
And if everybody feels like they're the only ones alive, everyone might miss someone and everyone might cry
But everyone is not alone at the same time, so some will die and some will cry while some of us are fine.

Nameless
02:56
|
|
||
|
Sing for the living, sing for the dead, sing for the killers and the blood that we've shed
Sing for the dying, sing for the sane, sing for the madman who forgets his name
A woman's scorn a fool may earn with hardly any care, but soon the fool will fast be of his folly made aware
The fool who stands before you knew these troubles once before, and murder found me brief respite but hauntings evermore
These paranoid delusions, were once no cause for fright, seen in but the smallest dreams of deepest darkest night
But madness which was once a simple task to keep concealed, has grown into a horrid state by murderous rage revealed.

The Sisters
03:10
|
|
||
|
Heavy the young mother's eyes, strength left for only goodbyes.
Beloved and Beauty, these twins and our sins, and all else I say will be lies
The years saw them always together, until suitors would come to call
I wrapped a ring on Beloved, my dear, but Beauty found no one at all
Lonesome and given to envy, Beauty found jealous resolve
to tell her sister some fiction of me, some sad deceit I can't recall
Now I would not be contented, to see Beloved leave my side
I sent for Beauty to meet me alone, in this valley I found her to die.

Last of Firsts
06:10
|
|
||
|
You have your greed and jealousy and smile sweet on my distress
But death is here to see you off, and sing thee sweetly to thy rest
You'll never see, you'll never hear, for time is short and mercy's blessed
It's your own tongue that laid you here, and sings thee sweetly to thy rest
What you destroyed was perfect, and never caused you any harm
Now turn your ears to distant thunder, and brace yourself against the storm
Now her last of firsts, the struggle's sudden end, I'll hollow the earth to hide away my sins
But as I fill the grave, there's a shining in the sand; the ring I gave my love's on this body's hand.

Thundersong
02:59
|
|
||
|
Call the clouds to cover over this regret
Call the rain to wash away this scent of death
Call the thunder down to shake me to my core
Call the storm to change these memories ever more
Burn the roads, that lead us here
Kill the conscience, and damn the tears
Seek the void, which swallows form
Summon thunder, and call the storm.

Song for the Dead
03:19
|
|
||
|
No one remembers I lived or died, nobody knows where I reside
Though travellers often amble o'er me, in this valley grave that I call mine
So sing me songs sung for the dead, and send me sweetly to my rest.
My bones were laid here by a boy I knew, he whispered, "dear, I'll see you soon."
He held a dark and woesome mood, as if some dark deed he was off to do
I am a girl, I am a soul, I had a boy who made me whole
Now he is gone and I am dead, so he's my song and I'm his regret

From Bones
03:00
|
|
||
|
From high on her throne, built from bones, of souls who had sailed her and drowned in her sea
I hear her breath long chilled with death, speaking my deepening weakness to me
I know it's my own; her voice, my tone, but madness betrays me and gnaws at my bones
I know that she's gone, and I know where she lies, but still all I hear is her deafening cries
"Hideous, murderous liar, broken, loathsome coward"
I'd beg you to break me, to shatter and shake me, whatever you must to forsake me.

Dreams Opaque
03:26
|
|
||
|
I am the mind of a man long lost to the madness of his thoughts
Reality is faint and dreams opaque, thalassic fantasies and oceans fake
Enemies thrown to the devil's keep, enter into cold, dark sleep
This man threw thousands to the ocean's depths, though these shores he's never left
A crew so strong and a mind so wrong, he commands the sea, but in vanity.

Winter
07:20
|
|
||
|
Away my soul's winter with all its decay
Show me your summer and hide all my pain
Forgive all misfortune if only today
Away all my sorrow, away all disdain
Like falling through fantasies, and shaken from dreams
Real or reliving, remains to be seen
If all life is tragic and all my life's vain
Then howbeit this ending's so empty of pain?
Oh wonder; this moment, this clearness of mind
My madness forsaken, though fleeting; my time
Visions of her now; forgiveness to find
Now gone is my hour and heavy my eyes.
