lyrics

When I woke in the cold and the dark
A pestilent wind had unfurled
To scatter the ashes of man
And carry the smoke around the grim world.

Beneath a welkin black with ashes,
Wherein the sun forsakes to rise,
I have wandered for so long
And remembered ravens in the blue and cloudless skies.

Sickening rain begrimes my head.
Long ago I cast my mask among the dead.

The road through the cold and the dark
Stinks of scorched flesh and of rot.
Under black respirators
Dark orbits hold eyes forsaken by God.

Where should I go when the dark is ominpresent
And light is on the wane?
I am setting forth to somewhere, to nowhere,
As I wander in vain.

I am inhaling the darkness, inhaling the cold,
Inhaling the ashes, inhaling the smoke,
Exhaling the fine mist of blood
That dissolves in nothingness like hope.

Where should I stay when death is omnipresent
And life is on the wane?
I am setting forth to somewhere, to nowhere,
Unable to remain.

The cloak of the cold and the dark
Covers every thought.
Light there is little, life there is less
And hope, hope there is nought.
There is smoke in the cold and the dark,
And the dark, the dark has no name.
Yet it is my companion here
Where no light shall remain and all life is on the wane.
