lyrics

Mourning under the blackened sky
A lament for light long forgotten
The new sacred mass rituals assert themselves
For we shall not hinder nor rust
Condemning our fate through self-flagellation

Through pestilence and pain
For the abhorrent sins of old will be absolved to prevent doom and despair of the tormented soul
But to what avail

We who are alive
Who are left
Shall be caught together in clouds of thickened ash
We trust in the illusion of life
Only the fate of immurement waits for the mindless drone

We shall bathe in his majesty’s righteous light and at thy twilight, old thoughts return
In great waves of nostalgia
This forced reality is nothing more than a curse
The king’s blessing that is true to every fault.

Forgive me
For I have not felt this grief in my heart
The overwhelming burden and questions of my tortured soul

His righteous light calls and it fills me with the warmth I once desired
The mind is a cell so cold and dark

For this is the only comfort humanity can endure
The endless endeavour to serve a foolish trait.

Damp Chill of Life
by NONE

supported by 112 fans who also own “Mourning Under the Blackened Sky”

NONE a opéré un virage dans Where Life Should Be et ça se confirme davantage dans Damp Chill of Life. Le temps des métaphores est révolu : l'humidité froide, c'est celle des larmes qui coulent sur le visage à cause de la dépression. Tout pleure dans cet album : les guitares typées DSBM grésillent, les solos ("The Damp Chill of Life", "It's Painless To Let Go") sont liquides et coulent, les voix prennent à la gorge ; même le piano, étranglé par les sanglots ("Cease"), est aphone. Insoutenable... Jordan Vauvert
