《Bereft (album version)》歌词

[00:11:49] Alone...

[00:11:49] Hollow...

[00:11:49] Ashen.

[00:11:49] Life promises only death.

[00:11:49] And thus I am again sentenced to solitude,

[00:11:49] In silent contemplation, a vision framed in grey

[00:11:49] Falls upon world-weary eyes and brings torpor.

[00:11:49] The years behind left drained and colourless.

[00:11:49] I look within to fan the embers,

[00:11:49] Charred and enervated beyond recall to flame.

[00:11:49] For so long, I have journeyed, one weary step upon another,

[00:11:49] The dust of a decade's failures ground underfoot.

[00:11:49] And so I fix my gaze to myriad desolation.

[00:11:49] The harsh wind punished a frail simulacra

[00:11:49] On the precipice of spiritual oblivion,

[00:11:49] Without and within only ashes remain.

[00:11:49] As the elements now I shall be.

[00:11:49] As one with the enduring stone and the onrushing waters of wild rivers.

[00:11:49] As one with the burnished hue of the dawn

[00:11:49] And the misty closure of the twilit evenfall.

[00:11:49] To cross the foils and Stygian peatfields.

[00:11:49] To stride unfeeling towards the eternal periphery.

[00:11:49] These bitter lands have borne witness to so much

[00:11:49] That I now embrace within a lonely

[00:11:49] And burned-out will.

[00:11:49] When only distant memories chime across a spiritual vacuum,

[00:11:49] The last vestiges of life long since extinguished.

[00:11:49] A dying visage whipped by storms charged with the stench of despair.

[00:11:49] The entirety of my essence, the nucleus of my humanity now scoured.

[00:11:49] I am Bereft.
