lyrics
LET’S RIDE THE SKY INFINITE WE RISE
FEAR NO LONGER ENDLESS DREAMS
PATTERNS SOAKED WITHIN ITS SEAMS
TWISTED EYES YET GENTLE FLESH
BREATHE A DREAM UNFETTERED BREATH
LET’S GO INSIDE DEEPER DEEPER
DEEPER YOU MAY FIND
THE LAYERS FADE AWAY
CURSE THE DYING DAY
LET’S GET INSIDE DEEPER DEEPER
DEEPER YOU MAY FIND
LET’S SAY GOODBYE YET SCREAM HELLO
THEY ASKED HOW HIGH WE SAID WE’D GO
IN HIS ESSENCE WE ARE LESS THAN AMEN
FOREVER COLD YET FEEL MY HEAT
AND TO MY BONE THEE BE MY MEAT
IF NOT ALONE THEE BE MY FIX
LEAVE US STAY AMONG US
WE ARE ALONE JUST YOU AND ME
FOR A SHORT TIME SO SHALL WE SEE
LEAVE US STAY AMONG US
LET’S SAY GOODBYE YET SCREAM HELLO
THEY ASKED HOW HIGH WE SAID WE’D GO
IN HIS ESSENCE WE ARE LESS THAN AMEN
TEMPT US WE INVEST THUS
ASSURE US BRING US WORDS TO SING
LEND US PLEASE ACCEPT THUS
THERE’S MORE TO ME
WILL YOU SET ME FREE
WE’VE REACHED OUR GOAL
SO HOLD ON TIGHT
INTO HIS FOLD INHALE THE NIGHT
IN HIS LESSONS BREATHE
HIS ESSENCE AMEN
FEAR NO LONGER ENDLESS DREAMS
PATTERNS SOAKED WITHIN ITS SEAMS
TWISTED EYES YET GENTLE FLESH
BREATHE A DREAM UNFETTERED BREATH
LET’S GO INSIDE DEEPER DEEPER
DEEPER YOU MAY FIND
THE LAYERS FADE AWAY
CURSE THE DYING DAY
LET’S GET INSIDE DEEPER DEEPER
DEEPER YOU MAY FIND
LET’S SAY GOODBYE YET SCREAM HELLO
THEY ASKED HOW HIGH WE SAID WE’D GO
IN HIS ESSENCE WE ARE LESS THAN AMEN
FOREVER COLD YET FEEL MY HEAT
AND TO MY BONE THEE BE MY MEAT
IF NOT ALONE THEE BE MY FIX
LEAVE US STAY AMONG US
WE ARE ALONE JUST YOU AND ME
FOR A SHORT TIME SO SHALL WE SEE
LEAVE US STAY AMONG US
LET’S SAY GOODBYE YET SCREAM HELLO
THEY ASKED HOW HIGH WE SAID WE’D GO
IN HIS ESSENCE WE ARE LESS THAN AMEN
TEMPT US WE INVEST THUS
ASSURE US BRING US WORDS TO SING
LEND US PLEASE ACCEPT THUS
THERE’S MORE TO ME
WILL YOU SET ME FREE
WE’VE REACHED OUR GOAL
SO HOLD ON TIGHT
INTO HIS FOLD INHALE THE NIGHT
IN HIS LESSONS BREATHE
HIS ESSENCE AMEN

Black Anvil recommends:
-
TOMBS return with the 'All Empires Fall' EP, an experimental, commanding, and crushingly heavy release, one that invokes the kind of grandeur and magnitude its title suggests
go to album -
'Cloak of Ash' combines devastatingly beautiful atmosphere with the uncompromising heaviness of a thousand tidal waves. This is music that is dynamic, supremely nihilistic and earth shaking.
go to album -
'M' finds MYRKUR achieving the grandiose heights that everyone hoped she would climb to. 'M' is a metal masterpiece that blends black metal, Nordic folk music, classical and haunting choirs.

Mikolaj is a real multi-talent in bass as well as guitar as well as vocals and "Darkside" Maciej's drumming is a well-calibrated 100th-of-seconds-clockwork. Not for nothing is Mgla considered as a standard for a lot of other blacker-than-black metal bands. I hope to see this band live once.....
