Thy Curses We Bear Eternal (EP)

by Noctoran

/
1.
Senses duller To the transcendent pain Of this cold life To disconnect From this sensation Is but only a futile dream The psalms of self Through torn and blood-smeared pages All becomes a blur One must wonder If this pain devoid of purpose Shall ever falter not, Yea, carnage eternal Mind become blind to the transcendent pain To embrace the flames
2.
Blood stains the hallowed oak Seeping in the rotted wood The flesh exposed, the tears of man Beasts crawl out From the darkness of heart's truth Is this all we are? Was this always fate? Tarnishing all we see With every step we take The trails of red we leave To follow our mistakes Food for the hungry wolves Is our ultimate destiny Return us to nature Reclaim our bodies As our blood stains The hallowed oak
3.
The winds of plague Swarm the lungs like angry wasps This parasite we carry This debilitating condition we fear Humanity's breath Of pestilent winds Unprecedented miasma Bathes our form Worry worry, this shall never pass Life is a state of constant fear That your safety is only temporary Is but a fickle truth To be carried in the vultures To mutate, to propagate In death our remains still ripple In a cloud of endless sick, pestilent winds Pestilent winds, gust the world to death Pestilent winds Pestilent winds, gust the world to death

On that clear sky night, I walk to the lake submerged in shadow. In the reflection of the water, an eye stares into my soul. It is a full moon tonight. The pale light from her body. I can't look away. I can hear her song. "Yes... it's her... the woman of the moon." She calls me toward, and I feel my blood turn into ice. "Join me beneath the surface." I cannot resist. Her voice... In this moment, she was all I desired. Into the lake I step. I walk forward until head submerged. "The woman of the moon... I want to be with her... Forever." The water and I become one. The woman's song turns into whispers. "Yes, come to me. Take my hand and embrace the water. Let it wash over your senses, until your final breath." It was the last thing I ever heard, and it was beautiful. And then was I, Just a body in the reflection Of the pale moon's eye.
