Panta Rei / Gather In Me No More

(Panta Rei)
The autumn sun is restrained to wither
As the winter assumes with its pale pride

The last of life is smothered
Only the remembrance of a season's departure is left behind
As a ghastly hand sweeps the landscape
The eternal conquering of seasons
And deprivement of beauty and life
The sun is restrained to wither
Only to perish into the twilight of seasons

An eternal eclipse between phases of conquering

(Gather In Me No More)
This penetrating pain arousing from its sleep
This pallid flesh hiding in shades
These hollow orbits watering the ground

Frantic ghouls lurking in my shadow
Reptiles crawling under my skin

Temptations
Swansong from the tarn
Cold caresses of a quivering shroud
The phasma cradling me in its arms
Its wormwood tongue rasping my face

Flee from me, spirits of ferocity
And open the gates of this limbo
Come to me, bringer of joy
And disembody my pain
Hinder the inflow of figments
Let them gather in me no more
Stop the bleeding
Heal my wounds
Melt the frost in my veins
Dissolve the sickened - red haze round me
And stop the toll of the knell
