• 1. The Ashen Falls (06:40)
   copy

  We're living in the shade
  of a disillusioning truth.
  What separated you
  from your own will?
  From opening your eyes
  to see the great depression?
  This is a world
  lost in degeneration.
  
  A teardrop
  into a river of blood.
  Words like dead feathers.
  
  A teardrop
  into a river of blood.
  Black waters
  parting the skyline.
  
  In this life we're but a teardrop
  in a raging maelstrom.
  The Ashen Falls.
  Living in the shade
  of a disillusioning truth,
  paralyzing you.
  
  And we're drowning in the floods!
  
  In this life we're but a teardrop
  in a raging maelstrom.
  The Ashen Falls.
  Living in the shade
  of a disillusioning truth,
  paralyzing you.
  
  The Ashen Falls -
  paralyzing you!
  The Ashen Falls.
  The Ashen Falls.
  
  "Being alone,
  feeling isolated or simply out of place
  is something that is always there.
  All your life.
  You may find places where you feel more welcome
  but this general feeling of alienation remains -
  forever."
  
  Let the floods take the pain away.
  
  We've opened our hearts to the worst -
  we're lost in the night.
  We've opened our hearts to the worst.
• 2. Season of Grief (09:54)
   copy

  At this bleak moment
  in the history of the earth,
  what would not be
  a waste of time?
  
  We're neck deep in the water.
  Will there be stories left to tell?
  Give me the warmth of hell
  so I can feel myself.
  
  We belong to the netherworld
  and I'll be nothing,
  you will be nothing.
  Hear me calling,
  I'm calling your name.
  This world is dying.
  This is a season of grief!
  
  I retreat
  to hibernate.
  I choose
  withdrawal.
  
  Not with cynicism
  but with a questing mind.
  Not with cynicism
  but with a questing mind.
  
  Hear me calling,
  I'm calling your name.
  This world is dying.
  This is a season of grief!
  
  I watch the nightsky
  and the moonlit mountain range.
  I pity those
  who never learned to see the earth.
  
  Progress is not my god!
  And you cannot kill what is wild.
  
  I will enjoy the friendship of the seasons
  and start to live,
  to own my life.
  
  You cannot kill what is wild!
  
  Hear me calling,
  I'm calling your name.
  This world is dying.
  This is a season of grief
  ...of grief!
  Season of grief!
  
  The machines are marching on
  devouring all beauty.
  Yet I stand strong.
  Against the grain
  and the unfolding storm.
• 3. You Are the Night (05:06)
   copy

  We are enshrouded
  by a veil of darkness.
  This deafening blackness
  will tear us apart.
  
  We never learned to live,
  only to die.
  Empty days
  dominate our lives.
  
  We never learned to dream,
  only to lie.
  Sleepless nights
  dominate our lives.
  
  Can you collect some stars for me?
  I need to drink their cold and icy light.
  Please make me find some solace,
  for you are the night.
  
  There is no hope for us
  for we are creatures of defeat.
  We stumble through the darkness.
  In search for light
  we'll go blind.
  
  Can you bring down the moon for me?
  I need to eat his cold and icy light.
  Please make me find some solace,
  for you are the night.
  
  For you are the night.
  
  Will we learn to dance one day
  in total darkness?
  Please send your son to me
  for he will kill all my dreams.
  
  Drown me in your darkness
  for you are the night!
  Drown me in your darkness
  for you are the night!
  
  You are the night.
• 4. Inertia (04:08)
   copy

  A bottomless pit,
  a darkened corridor.
  Dug myself a hole.
  Dreary vacuum,
  distorted faces.
  Grimaces.
  
  I crush,
  I burn.
  The demons grab my hand.
  
  Inertia.
• 5. Rain (instrumental) (02:26)
   copy

• 6. Dreamgatherer (08:01)
   copy

  Behind those eyes
  rests a jaded mind.
  Dreamgatherer
  floating in the mellow hands
  of the sky.
  
  This world outside
  means nothing in my head.
  I find escape in loneliness.
  Don't blur the line
  between your world and mine.
  Don't try to fill the void.
  
  I am alone up here
  watching the world from afar.
  But I can't see anything
  because I'm drowning in myself.
  Drowning in myself.
  
  Dreamgatherer
  floating in the mellow hands..
  Dreamgatherer
  floating in the mellow hands
  of the sky.
  
  Behind those eyes
  rests a jaded mind.
  Doomgatherer
  falling through the fragile hands
  of this life.
  
  This world outside
  means nothing in my head.
  I find escape in loneliness.
  Don't blur the line
  between your world and mine.
  Don't try to fill the void.
• 7. The Heart of December (04:30)
   copy

  And I fade into
  the endless white.
  And I retreat from this world,
  the fading warmth…
  the fading warmth.
  
  And I become one
  with the night.
  And I retreat from this world,
  the fading warmth…
  the fading warmth.
  
  Bleak skies melt slowly,
  painted grey.
  A canvas torn
  where hope decays.
  
  And when I'm gone
  will you still remember
  the shining flame
  in the heart of December?
• 8. Burial (05:24)
   copy

  We consume this world
  like we're alone out there.
  Once there's nothing left
  will you still not care at all?
  And while the will won't die
  it still feels like
  this is a burial.
  
  So dead inside,
  living own realities.
  Do you think there's time?
  Maybe,
  but there is no infinity.
  
  Concrete figures, concrete lungs.
  Exhale. Exhale the darkest breath.
  Burning the cold remembrance,
  the remnants of our failures
  are falling onto our heads.
  
  We consume this world
  like we're alone out there.
  Once there's nothing left
  will you still not care at all?
  And while the will won't die
  it still feels like
  this is a burial…
  of us all.
  
  We consume this world
  like we're alone out there.
  Once there's nothing left
  will we still not care?
  
  So dead inside,
  living own realities.
  Do you think there's time?
  Maybe,
  but there is no infinity.
• 9. Solastalgia (09:17)
   copy

  The dawn reveals to me
  a world that's ablaze.
  Black shrouds
  cover this realm.
  A realm that slowly fades.
  
  Solastalgia! Where is the forest standing strong for centuries?
  Solastalgia! Where are the spirits stalking the wilderness?
  
  The twilight never came.
  One god outlived them all.
  
  My beloved home
  only barren desert plains.
  Mournful and quiet,
  lost everything of worth.
  
  A black sun
  cloaks the woods in darkness.
  Black claws
  and gaping jaws.
  Thick smoke
  fills the evening air
  as moths
  search for the hidden moon.
  
  Solastalgia! Where is the mountain braving storms for centuries?
  Solastalgia! Where is the wrath, the flame? Where are the hopeful dreams?
  Hopeful dreams?
  
  Denial of beauty.
  Desert plains.
  Life.
  Less.
• 10. The Same Hell (MMXXV) (03:28)
   copy

  From my view
  I see hollow faces
  falling through
  the same hell.
• 11. Metaphor (In Flames cover) (04:05)
   copy

  You stole my pure intentions.
  You are the sickness in between.
  Let me in, I’ll bury the pain.
  
  You taught me to be sad as you.
  You almost made me take it all.
  Let me in, I’ll bury the pain.
  
  The sickness that you are,
  a plague that made me starve.
  Do you think you can show me,
  how I've come this far?
  
  You bend me and you shake me,
  you beg me then you break me.
  Let me in, I’ll bury the pain.
  
  You made me feel like a sinner.
  Now you fear you’ll die alone.
  Let me in, I’ll bury the pain.
  
  The sickness that you are,
  a plague that made me starve.
  Do you think you can show me
  how I've come this far?
  
  I feel it’s taking over.
  Everything falls dark.
  Break me open, the desperate cry.
  
  The sickness that you are,
  a plague that made me starve.
  Do you think you can show me
  how I've come this far?
