lyrics

Tempestas

A calm in the air stills the water.
Silver black clouds loom nearer.
The cliff side gleams in the reflection of crystal waters
And but for a moment I feel her.

Though I know she’s no longer here I feel her behind me.
Her warmth in my hands.
Her very last breath passing over my cheek.

A crack of thunder roars as fingers of light caress the ground.

Alone I stand at the cliff's edge,
wind sweeping through my hair.
Hands desperately calling for the horizon.

I bellow forth my rage and contempt.
Tempestas!
Take me!
Steal me into the watery depths below.
Oh how hollow my shell has become,
For there is no purpose for me here anymore.

The ground quakes as water crashes.
Rain falls from above
And thunder belows while lightning reaches across the sky.

Oh Tempestas!
How I call you forth.
Wrought with despair, please return me home.

The perilous mouth of derision
Opens forth from the waters below.

Roaring it’s ridicule.
Regret and contempt now fleeting.
My decision is clear.

I bellow forth my rage and contempt.
Tempestas!
Take me!
Steal me into the watery depths below.
Oh how hollow my shell has become.
For there is no purpose for me here anymore.

Tempestas!
Please, take me!
Steal me into the watery depths below.
As I give way to the eternal void.

I wish to hold her warmth in my hands once more.
Feel her breath against my ear.
Whispering fond memories to me once more.
My eyes now one with the delicate rage of the maelstrom.
Loss and despair, defeat me not.
This is not submission, yet, victory.
Through sacrifice I give way to the storm
And pray to be unscathed.

I bellow forth my rage and contempt.
Tempestas!
Take me!
Steal me into the watery depths below.
Oh how hollow my shell has become.
For there is no purpose for me here anymore.

Tempestas!
Please, take me!
Steal me into the watery depths below.
As I give way to the eternal void.

Fantastic album, which over the years has become IMPOSSIBLE to find (the 2006 version) - even to pirate it! It's great to have this, but I have one complaint: the 2006 version of Invisible Kingdom had one of my favorite guitar solos ever, and it's just not anywhere near as good or compelling on this version. A real shame. Still quite glad to have this. Please release Psychotic Sculpture and Beyond the Cursed Eclipse on BC! Archmage Orladin

Melodic Death Metal from Germany & New Zealand. Incredible melodies that hook you in & never let you go! This is such a fun listen! It just gallops through & - before you know it - you are at the end & just dying to hit that repeat button once again! No bests! You need every song here! Highly recommended!!! bmurator
