Eternal Tranquillity 19. 06. 02

Last night my soul followed the vanishing grace
Straight into the graveyard above the white haze
The path of my long-bygone time led me back
And there I have found but the smouldering wreck
The wreck of a dream mid the devilish host
The blank desperation for all that is lost
My legend is buried... and never to wait...
Nobody shall give me the will to create
The lifeless tranquillity covers my world
It's bringing the signs of distress to behold
The shades of insanity slowly arise
The nature of gloom burns like hell in my eyes
My road to the odious future was set
When in the dark mirror I saw the steel bat
The Reaper is sharpening his flickering blade
Appeals to me: "Visit the death's masquerade
'Cause better to keep up the sinister rite
Than just to be won un the meaningless fight"
I am the conservator of the great lore
But yet the departed I cannot restore...

So, little by little my sorcery fades
Without it the point of the portends evades
The hopes of this land are forever entombed
The Earth is immortal... the true love is doomed...
And most of my brethren and friends won't return
Upon this bleak shore I will stand all alone
And maybe the glimpse in the river's expanse
Will send me the memories of what is sense...
The seasons of sorrow have tainted my rhyme
The feverish mist dwells in me from the Prime
My verses are flying throughout the dim years
Where even the tiny sun's ray disappears
And every deep tinge of the throe and the pain
Prevailed in my youth that no man can regain
Yes, something was stupid but something was fair
My way's still the road to the withering glare...
And while the obscure beauty stays by my side,
The Goddess of Doom is my permanent guide
The black tears of silence we drink from the grass
And this blood-red moon's shining only for us
