The Burning of a Sacred Tree

Lyrics:
Rise up through the night
In turn I am framed in formless light
Much the same and unconcerned
A candle burned


Soaring higher through arcane
Which carried on our song
Verse within your arms that's gone
A chorus might still ring for all


Rozsa es ci rovh uhn duhnis un
Rozsa es csah combuh
Binai roti
Ohzah de khah ozhah mirankah
Umbai soma vinza mykan bintih


Kath, Vhasah scye
Vrar iye vhasah ree
Wraie vesi iye
Vha! Fahn nuhn rir
Ahk morin
Vafin srir
Fah dyne
 

Ancients who made creations bound to aether
Breathing shell-less life
Curious girl projects
Feeling outside her mind, speaking
Reaching out to touch a stranger
Uncommon tongue
Being of aether and dynamis
Bringing visions of the end
The coming death
Sacrificing their own for the ultimate creation
Lord of Dark
Zodiark is the end
Zodiark descends
Zodiark must be sealed away
So she came, the maker of moons

Hydaelyn's Will

In the edges of space
Remnants of ages
Suspended in time
Lingering lifeline

Contrasting the change
Bringing starvation
Tore them away
Begotten salvation

Transcript (only on youtube):

We conducted our search as per your instructions.


One race had striven to create a world bereft of animosity. They renounced relationships to avoid interpersonal strife, and in so doing, brought about societal collapse.


One race had renounced war and devoted itself to the enrichment of its people. They were conquered. Although they destroyed the enemy in reprisal, they could not regain their former glory.


One race had concluded that finite time was the root of all woes. Aspiring to shatter it's shackles, they went in search of the infinite. They discovered that nothing is infinite and neither time nor death could be cheated. Disillusioned, they gave up on the future and themselves.


One race had discarded all things that gave rise to sorrow, hoping to have only joy. They found that joy lost its favor in the absence of sorrow and lost their will to live.


Though worlds apart, these people shared a belief. The belief that they had tried their best. That they had tried to fulfill their potential with every step in success, in the course of which they learned the truth.


That they would never be free of fear and sorrow, anger and despair, of loneliness so long as they yet lived.


Oh beloved mankind.
Shimmering jewels of beautiful Etheirys, Rejoice!


For we will free you of the cruel yoke of existence. There is no need to struggle in vain, for in nihility awaits salvation. You will know peace and serenity. And it will be… beautiful.

Rotting away


The trinity by my side
Oblivion in my sight
Meridian trailing light
Infinity in my mind

Where the Emerald Rivers Flow

The Flood of Light: Wardens

Land of Ruin

Written the week America went into quarantine back in 2020. Not fond of the name, but I just needed to tag it with something. Will eventually be changed.

Lyrics:
Reversing the course of destiny and standing still
Breath in empathy, lest find yourself within your sin
Moved aside
Fled the scene
Fallacy, Callously
Light expands and fades
Nothing is real, it's too late
Fading, lost in distant gray
All is lost and nothing gained
I cannot see another way
Read the words you wish you could retain
But now they are washed out
Fading, lost in distant gray
The same velocity in the shade of a tree
Contained in some dark place, far away
So hard to obtain when it slips away into nothing

Pointless Machines

Sometimes I lose track of where I am
Ending up in places I've been before
It's all circular
there is no end
I don't even know where it is I'm trying to go
Just someplace different
But nowhere's new to me anymore
Just dark nights after dark
Sleepless exhaustion
Pacing this line for eternity hoping I'll find a way out

Quietus

Lyrics:

I confide in the crafted wings
Fly beside the burning light
Wings subside, falling in the sea
Like a stone, falling into thee

Wax Wings

Fell Omen

Ixion Turns
