Another journey alone.
Miles leading to infinity with no bounds to my heart.
Leaving the life I've always known, I'm searching for better, wider, and far.
I kept the distant cold as far as I could.
A perilous path in circles with a voice of silence.
My skin grew old and my strides grew tired.
Endlessly pacing onwards with no value in my spirit.
I set my heart towards my own freedoms and dreams.
I strive for experience and appreciation for myself.
Every twist and turn from a partner's void impairs me.
I crave the solitude and silence for my own.

Awakening to the sunrise of a forgotten piece of land.
The cadence of the earth's breath, so simple, and kind.
Only the sounds of nature surround me.
Experiencing true bliss in the essence.
No more whirring from a time so empty and cold.
No longer feeling alone amongst the souls unkind and barren.
I've long for this moment to embrace my heart in the natural world.
The sunset comes from beyond the mountains.
This expedition of fate never to be recalled or told.

The long lasting prowess of another thought, subsiding in grief.
I haven't spoken in what feels like forever.
Language feels so irrelevant when the earth groans backwards.
Projections of frailty dangle just beneath the clouds.
My body feels weak and no longer influenced.
What brought me to this notion?
Now I'm wondering into completion, starving, and still.
My torch nearing the embers, I must move on.
Rocks as sharp as daggers, slashing against my skin.
I long for the meadows and damp grass.
A shivering wind to cleanse my mind.

Inevitable and true.
This is all I've ever known.

Alas, the final dawn approaches.
In the distance I see the ripples.
Time amongst the bold wanes misery in twilight.
Accepting the finality of my dreams, I am here.
Revolting amongst the mass of bareness, I am here.
With knees shaking and lungs quaking, I crawl in.
My arms surrender, my skin freezes, I vanish.
This breath leaves me, my heart withers, I am gone.
I am proud of my actions and love my imperfections.
I am fulfilled.
I left all the heartache and bleak souls behind.
I am here.

I saw these gents open the evening for DWeF in Trier some weeks ago. The vocalist seemed terribly shy between songs and then went full-on beastmode on the vocals again; him overcoming this was one of the most metal things I have ever seen. Vi Overlevde is, excuse this, bizarrely good. Not too posty, but still with a remarkable edge and a pretty unique feel to it. Maybe I'm still carried away by the live performance, but alas! This is great. Ensomhet is... beyond words. Kom til meg!
