I Never Dreamed That You Would Leave In The Summer 07:31
lyrics

Sometimes I see her walking Along the sea at night Her coat pulled up around her neck Her hair let down There is a darkened hole where I had expected light to shine I hear the faintest whispers As if they're mine Lost and blinded I cannot see you anymore The gentle wave of your hair The soft skin on your cheek The blurry trees behind you Are all that's left of me There is a darkened hole where I had expected light to shine I hear the faintest whispers As if they're mine Lost and blinded I cannot see you anymore A bleak setting in a backdrop of ashes You sit inside my darkest fears A lifeless hand that I can hold in mine I cannot stand to see you here This winter will be spent Searching through empty rooms Looking for the ashes With which I can dress my wounds There is a darkened hole where I had expected light to shine I hear the faintest whispers As if they're mine Lost and blinded I cannot see you anymore

Imagine Ashes That fall upon her hair Bleakness Surrounding A halfhearted smile The door between us Only serves to separate Our existences Nobody inside Nobody outside These walls have bore witness to so much These passing years are drawing to a close Your face becomes much more surreal Lightning Rain falls I can hear your heart collapse Windows Broken Yet I still can't see inside The door between us Only serves to separate Our existences Nobody inside Nobody outside These walls have bore witness to so much These passing years are drawing to a close Your face becomes much more surreal I see a glimmer of your sadness A sadness I that I know so well Nobody inside Nobody outside These walls have bore witness to so much These passing years are drawing to a close Your face becomes much more surreal

Life Is To Be Experienced, Not Remembered 03:03
lyrics
buy track
A blind display of tribute This wreath around your portrait Growing like vines Until you're gone Hidden beneath your purpose The memory you left behind you No longer navigates The landscape of life My thoughts have gone beyond A mere fixation Your silhouette Haunts my dreams Your golden hair so perfect It's just as I recall it You disappear Into the sea You can't feel the frozen air As you look towards the sky Yet here you are You command the stars My thoughts have gone beyond A mere fixation Your silhouette Haunts my dreams Your breath turns visible Exposing this nights air Frames I composed of our lives Caused me the greatest despair My thoughts have gone beyond A mere fixation Your silhouette Haunts my dreams

My Mind Returns To Miller Hill 03:01
lyrics

Show me the pale lines that make up your face I want to see if they'll quell my rage Inside my heart I can't let you go Strings pulled so tight it shows my rotted soul Sunrise forced me onto my feet Another day without you has come The ashes that hide your memory Cannot be cleared to show what's underneath Sunrise forced me onto my feet Another day without you has come Your painted lips are begging me for an answer Your eyes are pleading with me to take your hand Sunset has forced me into my home Another day without you has come and gone

In The Room Where You Died, My Life Shall End As Well 08:15
lyrics

I've laid my heart to rest with you There's nothing else that I can do Cast light onto a dying man This room is the only place where I can recover My heart and my soul, my eternal lover Cast this dying man into the dark

about

"This album is about a man who died twice."

This is a black metal EP I did just to try my hand at the genre after a binge of the stuff. I learned a lot while mixing this one. Turned into DSBM because hey....Depressing is kinda what I do.

Fun fact: This was recorded on a 7 string in Dropped B, but played as a 6 string tuned a whole step up.
