lyrics

The fire has been put out
Not by wind, or rain, or icy chill
But the flame is too bright, it snuffed itself
Unable to remain in this mortal coil

The Hearth is flooded
The heat drains from my veins
Into the void of self-deceit

Scorched fingertips burn
Blacken and rot away
While solace envelopes my mind
I want nothing more than to drift into
Unconsciousness
And embrace thine closing lids unfeeling

Darkness shrouds were embers smoldered
Unable to be relit in this futile place
This once sacred space
What shall I do when the night lays her blanket of velvet
Upon thine eyes?

about

Archaic Earth Mount Forest, Ontario

Born of dripping moss and delving roots, formed in the dark places beyond the veil and sung by the fire and fury of creation itself.
