Paths To Silence

Solemn, absent eyes
Lifeless, gazes of old
Howling suns of dawn
Take and embrace thy soul

The cold funeral winds
Will not return
They have claimed life's blood
Taken to paths of silence

And the holocaust flames
Rising from the depths
Now unfurl their malignant wings

For the inner ash and dust cloud my dark crystal eyes
And my hands
Stained with earth and blood

Winter harvest brought only damnation
To the ones that have cried to the wind

Cried with their withered voices
Tales of forgotten days
Lifeless echoes through dead winter's fields

On death's wings I soar across the gravelands
Aghast in the paths to silence
Witnessing immortality cease

Darkest aeons passed
Through mysterious arts

Winter harvest brought only damnation
To the ones that cried to the wind

And the wind cried back
