Inner Turmoil

When I hear your voice, I can't erase
The words you've written on my page
Been locked inside this mental cage,
Without an outlet for my rage
I can't absolve you from your past
I know that good things never last
But I'll revive and bring you back
I know there's nothing left but that
Bring me closer
Once I've gone to the edge
When I falter
Then there's no going back
Every word I said
Fills me with regret,
Knowing my mistakes,
Trying to forget
When I hear your voice, I can't erase
The words you've written on my page
Been locked inside this mental cage,
Without an outlet for my rage
I can't absolve you from your past
I know that good things never last
But I'll revive and bring you back
I know there's nothing left but that
There's nothing left for me to solve
But it still feels so unresolved
I can't believe that I did hold
Words kept within for so long
I refrained
Feel the rain
Words unsaid
Hurt intense
Nothing's left
For me to get
What do you want?
Nothing is left
What do you want?
Nothing is left

I Drowned In The Desert
07:08

These sands have formed a tomb around me
I drowned in the desert to find the peace in my mind
I know I shouldn't be here,
But it's the only escape I can find
From the storms I have to brave at sea
So I hid as far away as can be
Now I can't bring myself to survive outside my refuge
No matter where I roam,
I feel no warmth of another soul,
Isolation bestows
I'm becoming one
With the dust of this never ending hole,
I sink into the ground below
Will I ever feel free?
Will I ever find peace?
No matter where I roam,
I feel no warmth of another soul
Isolation bestows
I'm becoming one
With the dust of this never ending hole,
I sink into the ground below

Notti D'Inverno

Con tal morbo ogni speranza è morta
Non sento pace né sicurezza
Questi notti d'inverno sono così freddo L'abbraccio dell'estate è così lontano
The long winter nights and the howling winds
They seem to go on forever
Leeching me of my ambitions
It seems my happiness is severed
Con tal morbo ogni speranza è morta
This grey haze will not engulf me
Questi notti d'inverno sono così freddo
The fires of despair will not consume me
The encroaching night chills my soul
Darkened skies, leaves will fall
Energy wanes each passing day
'Tis the season to decay
The encroaching night chills my soul
Darkened skies, leaves will fall
Energy wanes each passing day
'Tis the season to decay

Ignis Fatuus

I will call for God to lift me up
And Lucifer will bring me down
Watch the earth go to hell,
While you beg forgiveness
Are you happy with what you've got now?
Wait for a sign
Wait till the end of time
Wait for a sign
Till the end of time
The Earth will sing together
In the elegy of the afterlife
Dead voices reign over these halls
Chant unified
Till the end of time
You deny the truth
Even though it's right in front of you
Will you ever learn?
I refuse to give my faith to tyrants
Say no prayers for me
I will not love a sadist
Nor will I worship your deity
Wait for a sign
Wait till the end of time
Wait for a sign
Till the end of time
The Earth will sing together
In the elegy of the afterlife
Dead voices reign over these halls
Chant unified
Till the end of time
Tell me what you've achieved with your life?
Your words drift through the souls of passers by
Hope is futile, death inevitable
But this life is priceless in my eyes
Ignis Fatuus,
O' will-o'-the-wisp
Why have you forsaken me?

Tumbleweed

Did it mean anything at all to you?
What was to be gained from this?
A pointless endeavour,
A passing attachment
Just like tumbleweed, you break your bond and fall away
Remember the days we spent together?
Yet here we are stuck in this eternal paradox
All that used to be will slowly smother
Ashes consumed by the rain
Lost in time within
This perpetual wasteland
What is there left to gain?
You walk along with no rebound
Swift as the breath of the wind,
Even when they struck me down to the ground
Just like tumbleweed, you break your bond and fall away
Remember the days we spent together?
Yet here we are stuck in this eternal paradox
And all that used to be will slowly smother
No word from you,
No move from you,
No word from you
The closer you became, the more I felt the pain
A pointless endeavour,
A passing attachment
Just like tumbleweed, you break your bond and fall away
Remember the days we spent together?
Yet here we are stuck in this eternal paradox
All that used to be will slowly smother

Dry

My mind is weary
And my pen has long run dry
All that I am is out of my reach,
Every day I just get by
But my mind is dry…
My mind is dry
My mind is dry
I sit up whilst the world sleeps
But my eyes are deaf and my ears are blind
The fire I once had has perished
And my pool is naught but dry
My mind is dry
My mind is dry
My late nights lead to late afternoons
I don't need an early start
I wish I had a purpose
I drink but my mind is parched
My mind is dry
My mind is dry
I try to quench it with what I love but still, My mind is dry
I was born to fly, soar above the clouds but
My mind is dry
I traded my wings for the safety of the ground,
Now I can't leave if I tried
I'm tired of the shelter from the trees

Dark Rainbow

My pride has failed me,
My honour has drowned in my tears
I came here in search of gold
But all I found was my own sorrow
This dark rainbow has deceived me,
A mirage of hope and prosperity
I am no longer safe here,
My mind is overwhelmed by fear
I can never carry this legacy,
I desire no fortune or medium
But my happiness has been lost
In the midst of my turmoil,
This was not meant to be
My pride has failed me,
My honour has drowned in my tears,
This was not meant to be
There is no sun
Beyond the storm
The grey stretches to beyond the horizon
This dark rainbow has deceived me,
A mirage of hope and prosperity
I am no longer safe here,
My mind is overwhelmed by fear
This dark rainbow has deceived me,
A mirage of hope and prosperity
I am no longer safe here,
My mind is overwhelmed by fear
Does this hazy trough have an end?
An uphill struggle
In an endless plain, again and again
My dreams and desires have fallen to tears Amongst the rain
This dark rainbow has deceived me,
A mirage of hope and prosperity
I am no longer safe here,
My mind is overwhelmed by fear
I am no longer safe here,
I run…

You make me feel like home
You make me feel I'm held
But this feels so at odds
With the violence, that surrounds
You say
What's life without death or sacrifice?
Rebirth without purge?
Is it worth it, to escape the outside world?
Never felt so loved and revered as I am now
But how long will it last,
Before the queen loses her crown?
When the seasons change,
Will I still preside over all?
Welcomed and in control…
Or will I receive the honour of sacrifice,
Should I become too bold?
The winter quart of life
My debts to be repaid
No qualms taking those lives,
Which would not willingly be given,
So why should I be spared
After making this decision?
Why was I brought here, why was I spared?
Led by the piper, the mind manipulator,
Just how far did your machinations go?
Emotions just a show
A facade of empathy
Never felt so loved and revered as I am now
But how long will it last
Before the queen loses her crown?
It seems that all is well
For those who want to play along,
Who know what's to pass
And can face it with a song
But can we truly know the price that's paid?
Until every last nerve is frayed
Only a fool would look death in the face,
Or trifle with life completely unfazed

I'm caught up in a dream
I don't know what it means
It's stirring thoughts in me
I don't know, won't you
Go…
Please go back to sleep
If you follow my lead,
Then you will find peace
Go…
Please go back to sleep
If you follow my lead,
Then you will find peace
Thoughts in my head
Spinning out of control
Which ones do I trust?
Which ones are here to claim my soul?
Tossing and turning, writhing and rolling I can't sleep
Twisting and churning, restless reeling and I fall deep
There is nothing I can turn to
To disentangle me from
This web that I've spun
At this hour, all is deserted
I'm left alone with my thoughts and I can't run
There is no one I can turn to,
To disentangle me from
This web that I've spun
At this hour, all is deserted
I'm left alone with my thoughts, and I can't
Go…
Please go back to sleep
If you follow my lead,
Then you will find peace
Go…
Please go back to sleep
If you follow my lead,
Then you will find peace
Go…
Please go back to sleep
If you follow my lead,
Then you will find peace
Go…
Please go back to sleep
If you follow my lead,
Then you will find peace

I'd like some Jinjer Ale. There's going to be an Alestorm if you find yourself in a sea of Jinjer Ale. Jesus is spelled with a J, like the J in Jerusalem. The J in Jer is often confused with the G in Ger. J for Jesus. G for God. Jinjer is a kind of root. Mayhaps it would benefit you to rediscover your roots.
