lyrics

My funeral was lonely
I wept for my past life
There was a time of grace
It soon fell from my eyes

A shadow in the sunlight
Reflects the tears in Hell
As I was covered in mud
I lost my tale to tell

What became of bliss
When at once it was gone
The dawn of Hell comes
When you're dead and alone

My path was cut short
My life was but a blink
As we circle the sun
I feel my heart sink

She wept at my grave
I saw her dressed in black
From this vantage point
There is no turning back

I long for the love
I long for the pain
I long for the stars
I long for the rain

My funeral was lonely
I wept for my past life
There was a time of grace
It soon fell from my eyes

A shadow in the sunlight
Reflects the tears in hell
As I was covered in mud
I lost my tale to tell

Merci Déhà for the download code. Lots of bands use these ingredients – pretty female vocals over doomy guitars always sounds good, but usually that's where the ideas run out. That isn't the case here. Each song is packed with ideas and evolutions, genres and references it's boring to list but not at all to listen to. A pleasure to have been introduced to this. Luke

Italian Black Metal. A one man, Chaos Luciferi, project. Raw & melodious & melancholic all the way. I would say this is Chaos' best so far! Fantastic melodies & atmospheres & new ideas! This is a concept album with an entire story flowing through it - some lyrics would be nice... :) Highly recommended!!! bmurator
