In lakes of snow she weeps
Our mother, our earth
And in darkness she creeps
She's wombless and hurt.
And icy shadows fell
T'wards the crying heart
Of man in endless woe.
We're falling apart.
Our dreams are shattered
By this endless grief
Of frozen eyes, we're frightened
There is no relief
Where this story ends
The beating of all hearts
Forever holding hands
In tombs our breathing stops.
Oh how I long for silence
And warmth of the sun
That's now covered in sadness
My souls road is done.
The trees now bend, and endless
The memory keeps warm
My mind that now is joyless
As life and us are gone.
Crimson blood
Constrains the cycle
To insist in an all-knowing hate
On a foreign path.
Our limbs are burning
Mother ov hate
Dissect the sorrow
with thy icy hands!
When our snow-white soul
Ends the flaming kiss
O' the curse called life
I beg you: end this!
Thousand-headed whore
Eat my flesh!
Conceal this soulless crust
In thy ever-hungry eyes
in the dirt of thy embrace,
Thy stench, my lust!
Murderer!
Liar!
Killer!
Son ov man!
You owe Gaia life!
We're drowning in snow,
Of broken thoughts, the flow
Keeps shivering through deepest
Sanctuaries.
As such doth Gaia perish
By frozen mud we're covered
A morbid hand lays it's last kiss
Under a dead leaf...
On a dead ground.
