lyrics

Gone, I reach for the ghost inside

Once clutched in a warm embrace
Not absent from memory
But a touch left behind
I hear it calling, whisper my name
It kept me from falling
Gone as it came
A wild affair
A brilliant romance
Gone as it came
The smell in the air
A ghost remains

I remember the touch
I remember the pain
And to feel it again
To covet the lust
It’s always been you
It’s always been us
Into the dark
This emptiness like a fading pulse
I can’t recall it’s not the same
I miss the touch
I miss the pain
Alone in my dark
Reviving the times that we had
One more taste
One more time
To say goodbye, to say goodbye

And now it’s gone
And now I wait to take my place
On a mantle of mistakes
On the day that I’m reborn
I’ll think fondly of the heart that I gave
The heart I’ve torn. I’ll burn so bright
I’ll fade so quick, sit in my dark
It’s you that I miss
Let me say it was worth the hate
This feeling of bliss, so close to my lips
Now I hold onto this sweet release
Hollow bones, such easy prey
Hollow bones, such easy prey

I remember the touch
I remember the pain
The smell in the air
A ghost remains
I remember the touch
I remember the pain
And to feel it again
To covet the lust
It’s always been you
It’s always been us.

I dig this album so much, definitely a keeper. Subtly and masterfully mixing death metal subgenres, backed with an over the top production. They're true professionals. Can't wait for their next release! doive

Coagulating Darkness
by Hellripper

supported by 7 fans who also own “Mourn”

Pretty much the best Black/Speed Metal I've listened to since I learned about Evil Invaders and Vulture. Everything you'd love to be reminded of about this musical era is there. The influences are what you'd expect too: Motörhead, Venom, Bathory, early Slayer, Celtic Frost; aggressive vocals, tortured guitar solos, pounding drums; everything is fast, clear and still a little grimy, but without reverb cranked up to the max. Amazing band, amazing album. Odiumediae
