Shade of Paradise

Awakened and submerged
Shade of the setting sun
From below the ground
Grace revealed unto us
Time slips away
Shining forms into the sky
Written on the slain
Ancient passage locked away
Cast by the Sea
Gleaming endless light
The shade of Paradise
Views of the reflective glass echo in your mind
Caress of silence
Golden radiant halls flicker upon
Beloved gaze of the autumn covered by the night eternal
Serene winds from depths below
Surrounding light of the sun beckoning I am one
Nothingness rings true
But meaning is beyond bountiful boundries
Worry not souls sing
As one by one they pluck their wings
Blessed freedom sigh not with infinite understanding
Chanting tounges of old to manifest the shade to rediscover paradise

The View From Nowhere
04:42
|
|||
|
It's easy to forget sunny days
Never remembering a smiling face
Ephemeral experiences
Transitory existence
Muzzling peace
Suffer a thousand lives
Never knowing what one meant
Locked within a paradox
Limited by human perception
Blocked and forever lost
Deception at utmost perfection
Faulty faculties
Corrupted capabilities
Speech in place of silence
Resounds beyond boundries
Of where one cannot speak
Of where one cannot think
Repetitive attempts
Along with incessant failures
To comprehend, or at least pretend
To obtain the view from nowhere
To obtain the truth and transcend

Somber Euphony
05:24
|
|||
|
Swarth in congruence
Alone I stand
The sirens Hymn thundering
Eternity dismaly
Becomes Reality
Encased and bound
Creatures Descend
Their wings they stand still
As they start to unveil
Distraught i stand accepting my fate
In unison their arms extend
To the ground and swaddle me tight
For the cold embrace, I see the light
Fade away flesh grows pale My screams unheard
Trembling in dread
The horns they blae, the strings they weep
The funeral bell rings
Orchestral incantations, the somber euphony
My destiny in solitude
To roam the lands in vain
As darkness plauges my weary soul
My wings begin to spread

Betrayal's Cost
08:41
|
|||
|
In the abscence of mind
a promised vision is yet to be
harmony fortold; undenied
moonlit gale, it speaks to me
---------------------------------
silence is the sound
what does it mean to see?
hollow is the smell
ive felt what should not be
---------------------------------
(fast part)
shattered fragile glass collapse
!conceiving the deranged!
out of body clouded mind
!crippled out of frame!
fractured thoughts of what is lost
!shadows over me!
vacant roads possess my eyes
!peircing willfully!
midnights lies bring broken sky's
!stalking, thundering!
mist of twilight fills my lungs
!gasping, shallow breathing!
utterance of empty words
!laughing and deceiving!
undeveloped selfish deeds
!haunting, undeserving!
panic, hatred, hurt & lust
!lucidity is lost!
voided eyes will realize
!this betrayal's cost.....
--------------------------------
into a scarred mind where lights presence is denied
-warmth of the soul, cradled from cold
into a scarred mind of secluded and silent cries
-rivers of poison, flowing avoidance
into a scarred mind a dimmed light reveals why
-deep rooted terror, will seize and will never...
-------------------------------------
can you see through my eyes?
choices that still haunt me
can you understand why?
a hallowed heart can still bleed
please forgive the children of hate and shine down upon me
brighten the shadows that shroud on my soul and lift me eternally
--------------------------------------------------------------
free me from this hell
bound in chains that forged in my derange
free me from this hell
storm of loath awaits the weakened souls
-------------------------------------------------------------
-shattered fragile glass collapse
-fractured thoughts of what is lost
-midnights lies, bring broken sky's
-utterance of empty words
-panic, hatred, hurt & lust
-voided eyes will realize this
-betrayal's cost.....
----------------------------------------------
dreaming, or so it seems
frames of sanity molded to deceive
reflections, of hypocrisy
a face of resent, staring back at me
-------------------------------------------------------
into a scarred mind a dimmed light reveals why
-deep rooted terror, will seize and will never...
define who we are.
---------------------------------------------
silence is the sound
what does it mean to see?
hollow is the smell
to feel what needs to be
----------------------------------------------
hollowed hearts still bleed

Stare Into Death And Be Still
by Ulcerate
supported by 5 fans who also own “...A Hollow Gaze”
The album description mentions an “emotional apex.” That’s really the difference between Stare and the band’s previous albums. Ulcerate was always supremely technically proficient. I just didn’t care all that much. Their growth has come from making music you will feel.

Bought this for Pierce Williams. Everything else is good too, but Pierce is one of the best drummers in death metal. The band is quite cerebral but reasonably accessible. A good mix of technicality, brutality, and atmosphere. Cool vocals.

Beautiful and not-overlong atmospheric moments as natural breaths between hard hitting passages and a strong musical theme throughout the work make this an album worth experiencing. It's hard to listen to only one song here without listening to them all which I think says a lot about the consistency and balance of the track list. I have been converted and am now a Phrenelith fan!
