lyrics

They told me I was mortal
that I will turn to ashes
and my remains will be eaten by gods
Sucking my body essence
feasting on primal fear
turning my veins into weeds of the swamp
They called me Silent Altar
table of all abstains
spreading the dirt admiring beauty of stains
But then I felt my soul,
body become one part
I felt my blood returning back to the heart!

I am the lace of veins and dusk and shame
Brother of serpents crawling high
I am the face of veins and dusk and pride
all of their hate keeps me safe inside

They told me I was mortal
that I was never precious
and that the ground will bury me to lashes
Their thoughts turn in my screams
abuse my kindest dreams
The secret war is lost, is this end I fear?

On your face it will rain again
but highest flame it will open your eyes
don't allow them to breathe your pain
make them drown!

They told me I was mortal
that I will turn to ashes
and in their world
only swamps will prevail
Serpents adore my limbs
and I wear them like crown
Through void and horrors of night I will sail!

I am the lace of veins and dusk and shame
Brother of serpents
crawling high
I am the lace of veins and dusk and pride
all of their hate keeps me safe inside
I am the face of veins and lust and pain
brother of serpents,
rising high
I am the face of veins and dust and pride
All of my faith keeps me safe

Inside!

A classical symphonic metal album. Even if you can think it is rough, I do appreciate this. I hope their sophomore album will be more polished in post-production, but not too much. Frederic Bezies
