Bodies of Water
Meaning was lost along the way,
search lights flickered, all in vain,
we passed each other by too late
and disappeared into the waves.
(I) heard your voice too many times,
deconstructed last goodbyes,
when it's over, smoke will rise
overhead in troubled skies.
She was burning underneath
the surface, calmness
helps her sleep,
I navigated through our dreams,
treasured moments... Out of reach.
Lost direction
can't find a way.
Drop in the ocean;
I evapourate.
Stars - they won't help you
when the storm arrives.
Watch from the shoreline,
drowning in your sight.

The Ash Tree
Climbing the staircase
in an hour of silence,
I rolled the stone
upward,
but I could never reach you
(I could never reach you)
You never tried,
with your rites
I was hypnotized.
In your wake
I lived and died
with sharpened knives
and loaded dice,
winter light
and revelry,
petrified
by what I've seen,
but tonight
we'll never leave
and fall into a bed of leaves.
The taste of iron
on tongues of the humble,
like a starlit dome;
so removed and final.
I walked alone
in the ruins of our castle,
they burnt the oaks
and the flames
consumed us all.
Don't need courage
if I'm cold enough,
your frost bitten
fingers bleed.
'Pain ain't nothing
but a distant thought'
and some rivers
run too deep.
You never tried,
with your eyes
I was hypnotized.
In your wake
I lived and died
with sharpened knives
and loaded dice,
winter light
and revelry,
petrified
by what I've seen,
but tonight
we'll stop the dream
and fall asleep
in a bed of leaves.
Reach you. I could never...

Maiden Lane
Saw your watercolours,
the cloud chased us down,
mutilated sunset
when the blood ran out,
and your hand was so cold;
shivered from the touch,
summer days are over,
I've given enough.
Image wrapped in flames,
tainted the lost landscapes.
We painted burning lakes,
I waited, tempting fate.
Slow dancing muse
captured in a still frame,
brushstrokes made new,
obscure your face.
All the love and hatred,
that was slipping away,
a sense of desperation,
a canvas on display.
Mistakes remain.
Your portrait changed.
Angel, serpent's tongue,
same old tired sun,
waited for the dusk,
passion has been undone.

Coldhearted
A silent war
fought by you alone,
a muted tongue,
a kiss. No antidote.
Poison and wine,
I carried the weight
a thousand times.
At the banquet
lovers die
in tribute
to your lie.
The sea was silver,
ashes on the shore,
I scattered remains
in a frozen dawn.
Beauty departed,
the light left your form.
Cold hearted,
what am I here for?
I was alive once, my dear.
Shed tears for you?
Couldn't really care.
Her whispered words
fell on deaf ears,
waves crashing down
year upon year.
The box you opened
can never close again,
a ballerina
lying motionless,
the inner workings
torn out and exposed.
An epitaph unwritten,
I picked a single rose.
I was alive once, my dear.
Shed tears for you?
Couldn't really care.
Her whispered words
fell on deaf ears,
waves crashing down
washed away the years.

Hourglass
I don't dream about you anymore
and I don't recognise the face I knew.
It's been a long time,
the colour of autumn gold,
the fires died.
It's been a long time,
the shade of a memory
brought into light.
Caught breath,
lost heads,
the crown
dropped,
the blade
fell.
Cruel seasons crystalised,
I won't question what you've left
behind.
Synchronicity denied,
and we forgot what life was like
for a time.
In the end
we can't escape,
but I will hold you
in my head.
It's been a long time,
the colour of molten gold,
the fires died.
It's been a long time,
the weight of remembering you
lifted tonight.
Go back
homeward.
Cold skin,
(and) an old path...

Remember the Earth but Never Come Back

Heavy, really heavy. Don't turn it up too loud because the doomy sound wave might throw you out of the closed window!

NONE a opéré un virage dans Where Life Should Be et ça se confirme davantage dans Damp Chill of Life. Le temps des métaphores est révolu : l'humidité froide, c'est celle des larmes qui coulent sur le visage à cause de la dépression. Tout pleure dans cet album : les guitares typées DSBM grésillent, les solos ("The Damp Chill of Life", "It's Painless To Let Go") sont liquides et coulent, les voix prennent à la gorge ; même le piano, étranglé par les sanglots ("Cease"), est aphone. Insoutenable...

Remnants of the Vessel
