lyrics

"I watched the stars fall from the night sky
like flies caught in some airborn poison.
I watched as dawn's light tried in vain to breach the horizon
before fading to obscurity and darkness...

... And it is all that I ever wanted..."

I, who now dwells in darkness
Who breathes air of poison
May my grief become conviction
For I have already slain the light

Her body preserved in moonlight
Serene as our starless skies
Forgotten to all
Daughter of the stars

Hands around her neck
Her dying smile
An ephemeral voice
As lights begin to fade

Eyes close slowly
Breathing subsides
Skin grows cold
Body grows limp

Her hair like the stars
Her eyes like the sun
And her soul like the moon

Don't worry, (my darling), I'm coming, (I'll be home soon)
I'm so sorry, (my darling), I made you wait, (I'll be home soon)
Your night is beautiful, (my darling), I'm so glad it will never end, (I'll be home soon)
This gift, (my darling), my gift to you (I'll be home soon)

A return to splendour
A body to the grave
Her cosmic resting place
A father's rage

We've lost our light
Our days end
No more sunlight
As moonlight descends

Bellum I
by Aquilus

supported by 9 fans who also own “Part 2: Sunless”

Aquilus took a decade off and came back like he never left! Bellum I is yet another piece of beautiful melodic black metal mixed with classical and folk that makes you wanna dance naked in a forest somewhere. The natural sounding production increases the atmosphere heavily. Griseus is a monumental black metal album for me but Bellum I isn't far behind. Can't wait for II! Ryan

Coherence

Valence, Much More was Lost... the whole album presents powerful trips into human psyche. If you care to read the lyrics, that is. I admire their works and consistence. They are the Dostoevsky of Metal. paulpriest
