Monia Lisa What a great idea they had to reform the band and record an album! That would have been a shame to miss this out. I really hope they'll keep it going.

Hard to choose my favorite song between "To the Very End" and the last two tracks.

target_destroyed Excellent album!
"The band reformed in 2020 to record one more album." - hopefully you guys reconsider this statement! Favorite track: And the Winter Came Pt. II.

Earth void of life, no birds shall roam the skies The sun chars all barren ground with its pitch-black eyes The swans turn gray with ash, waters red with blood On the shores I feel the remains of a stricken life in mud Before my eyes unfolds a scenery of pain Home of the black flies, of locusts, shut chains A kingdom built to fall from the start of time A world built around the necrosis of mind Arise, my precious tides, stand proud and tall Crumble down on the cliffs and sweep away it all Wash all the ashes away, sweep aside the dust Make way for a new time for all that's left is rust Under the waves hides the rust, under the rust a new time A new time rinsed with hope and ridden of bleak days Thrown into the abyss, hurled into the cold stream Swept away into the dreary tides Arise, my precious tides, stand proud and tall Crumble down on the cliffs and sweep away it all Wash all the ashes away, sweep aside the dust Make way for a new time for all that's left is rust

Deranged One 02:28
I feel my sanity Disappearing from my mind Frost rises, burns inside Darkens the world around me I feel just like disease A plague formed in my mind Grows the numbness inside Apathy engulfing me Yet I won't defy Feels like divinity To erase things from my mind No more worries here No more thoughts, no more sanity!

Past the stars of Orion Accompanied by Cygnus Gliding towards the dark unknown Through the space of absence Everything we'll ever love Every single thing we adorn Every night followed by mornings With a limit our days are cursed From the cradle to the very end We all have to stumble Of solace into the deepest dark Our way must be walked Now close your eyes and feel The warm embrace of Death The realm of emptiness awaits And takes home a child long lost From the cradle to the very end We all have to stumble Of solace into the deepest dark Our way must be walked
5.
Now I see the emptiness, as the gate begins to close In the peoples faces around me, the children's eyes, the heart of stone No idea what I've become, no clue who I really am For all I care is what is mine, as in the darkness I weakly stand I weakly Stand No pity for the dying, no remorse for the deceased As the fight goes on and on, as I battle this eerie disease Cold as ice my aching heart, stone kind my hollow mind Lifeless as the autumn leaves, lingering on the morning shine The Morning Shine Sometimes I look up the sky with these eyes of glass Sometimes I glance at my feet, and drop a tear of ash Cold as the clouds above, dark as the evernight The eyes seeping agony, and the hatred deepdown in side The coldness and the hopelessness, the leafless trees, the withred groves All remind me of who I am, as I lay alone with my woe With my woe Sometimes I look up the sky with these eyes of glass Sometimes I glance at my feet, and drop a tear of ash Feel the weight of the world, arise off your bones, as you stumble to the unknown, on the road of stones
6.
As the summer comes, there is a time, when the sun won't fall from the sky The nightless nights, the longest days, they'll end at the summers last rays Lay of autumn, falls the yellowed leaves, Arises the cold northern wind In the northern pole the winter has awaken, beneath the sleeping sun the polar night has risen Below the northern star so high up in the sky, there is a misery and the life will die Below the northern star so high up in the sky, I was born and now I'll ask "Oh why, oh why?"

Frozen is this air we all breathe A lively stream shrouded by ice Where once the day cherished its heart Millions of eyes now reside Another year coming close to an end Another piece of time fading away Every moment wasted in past's regret Comes as years in the groves of pain An icy wind blew over our land A freezing gust of death swept it all away Prepared the land for the oncoming snow And the winter that holds it all within A raft of icy clouds took over the skies A frosted wall of grief to imprison the sun The snow came crumbling down and the winter came And the winter came From a barrow to an utmost beauty Became our land by the winter's grasp This air sleeps in a world painted white By the skies now gray like ash Another aeon put to sleep An era lost in the brink of time The flow of time for us to keep For us to hold in an eternal night An icy wind blew over our land A freezing gust of death swept it all away Prepared the land for the oncoming snow And the winter that holds it all within A raft of icy clouds took over the skies A frosted wall of grief to imprison the sun The snow came crumbling down and the winter came And the winter came Another year coming close to an end Another aeon put to sleep Another piece of time fading away An era lost in the brink of time Every moment wasted in past's regret The flow of time for us to keep Comes as years in the groves of pain For us to hold in an eternal night And the winter came

Once it came A sheet of white death from the skies Once it came This snow, now our grave Even from the ashes of mind One shall rise anew Through this land of snow and ice Life will find a way For a long time we waited for the winter In the shades of a black sky's arc Our blood froze solid in our veins As we wandered, blinded by the dark The snow set, the winter came Upon the icy earth Painted with ice, sorrow and pain A black mark in my heart Once it came A sheet of white death from the skies Once it came This snow, now our grave Time after time, only snow in the ground Will there once be a tomorrow? A black sky drawn in sadness and woe And a world painted white in colours of sorrow "Even from the ashes of mind One shall rise anew Through this land of snow and ice Life will find a way" For a long time we waited for the winter In the shades of a black sky's arc Our blood froze solid in our veins As we wandered, blinded by the dark Will there once be a morning A morning when the world will live again Will there once be a time A time when the blood melts in my veins?
