Around me
People are talking
Beside me
Mortals are walking
...
Do you hear this sound of thunder,
Who's this might is, I do wonder,
Can you hear the heavens' roaring?
After Baldr they are mourning.
...
Dark are the forests where the wolves dwell,
Deep is the snow to hide bloody tracks,
Your soul is one of those empty shells,
You howl in the night, but no one howls back.
...
Awakened
She lay on a black velvet bed,
With black roses that engulf her bust,
Absolutely pale, but her lips are blood red,
...
The night is so warm, the moon is above,
I'm hidden in shadows, for no one to see,
A beautiful girl has no one to love,
I'm always behind her when she tries to flee.
...
I see thee scared and lost, walking through the maze,
Among the cobweb walls, in a blundering haste,
Thy dress is torn by thorns, thine eyes a scarlet blaze,
Ah thy body is all naked, pearl tears upon thine breasts.
...
Tis midnight, no star shining,
My sorrow is nearly burning
All my soul, within me, stirring,
In my heart all hopes are dying.
...
Do you remember Aveira, when I first met your smile,
In my darkness I shrunk and dreamt for a short while,
My dream, like my entire life, is just another morbid sin,
...
My black soul tares apart from the memories of old,
When my heart was in love with a girl pale and cold.
For her I would have given my very soul
And a heart full of dreams untold.
...
In the forest trees are frozen,
In this close to dawning hour,
In a moment dammed, unholy,
By my memories devoured.
...
