Even stars die
In each moonlight dream
Lies a world at peace
Fragile things are dreams
And the sunrise kills sleep

The Twenty-Third Candle
07:57
|
|||
|
Wine flows before dawn
So the sunrise doesn’t shine too strong
Old scars seek shade
Where they were born
Where they still burn
How was there a time when evening spread against the sky?
In a minute there is a time
In a drink; a lullaby
Falling forward
Each glass breaks
Grasping chains
Each drop stains
////////
Watch each star die, so dies each lie
The lying smile breaks
Just shells remain, always the same
Still the old guilt stains
Crying for shades to return to light the candles
Drowning the mind just to breathe
Just one more night, and when that’s too hard to handle
Just one more verse
Just one more dream
Just one more lie
Hazy thoughts
Breathe hope to all that rots
(Chorus A, Chorus B)
A faint ray begs a massive leap
In quiet desperation
Yearning for the rocking cradle
Swayed by songs from ghosts in shells
That cradle rocks no more
Those songs are faded whispers
The ray is dimmed to stony sleep
While snow falls free; while fire’s leased
Long into the abyss
Slouching past Bethlehem
There calls a pale light beyond
Cast by the morning’s Son
Have mercy, have mercy, have mercy
Forgive me
Hiding in shade by the long-forgotten candles
Drowning the mind just to breathe
Just one last night?
No, that’s too hard to handle
Just one last dream
Just let me lie

A Rose in the Ice
05:27
|
|||
|
Winds that roared so long ago
Return to desecrate the snow
So many times I wrote the words
Never meant to be heard
In fields of white where all has died
Red renews long-dead life
Awake, shiv’ring to old nightmares
Dreams I fear and adore still;
With each new page
I’m searching for new words
Still your petals fall free
Smearing the ink
A rose in the ice, thawing and freezing for years
O, such is our fate my dear, I know
I will wait, for each thorn’s cruel kiss
‘Til the end, ‘til the night
I can hold you again
But with love born wrong
Winter never ends
Diving off the bergs
Escape into the sea
Peering through the dark
Into glacier-glass
Reflections lack desires
And so the current sighs
Guides me back to ice
To crimson and white
(Chorus)
Howling with the storm-winds
Wand’ring bare tundra
Losing to that current
Ceaselessly borne back to the past

Envision
Reflection
Nature’s chain
To show the unseen
In search of truth in ash and clay
Reality is losing strength
Between the rifts of real and true
Discovering a different view
Envision
Reflection
Both will show us what we know
But what we cannot see
A mirror is an artist’s core
Fragile, sharp, and free
Framed in a vista
A world less forsaken
Giving the picture to a world used to taking
Woven like canvas
Torn at the edges
Framed under tension
Unsure and unquestioned
Drowning and dreaming
Silent and seeing
Bound and believing
Found only in feeling
Mare di sangue
And when the seas claim the earth again
What they wrote will be sung in each swell of the waves
And through their work we sometimes see
That which they could not find
A sense of what it all might mean
The world they left behind

No poet and an empty page
Calypso
My songstress
Pages unbound
Waves crashing down
Ink-bloodied sea
Sharks come to feed
Lulled to sleep by your Judas-kiss
Thaw before the frost
Guided through the forsaken mist
Never count the cost
Erase the story and break the pen
The symphony falls silent
So dies the glory of mice and men
Fall victim to the siren
No poet and an empty page
Venomous quake
These walls will shake
Ceiling collapse and the
Windows will break
Stones are torn down
Back in the ground
Eden lost to snakes in the grass
Peace that could not last
Every word is gone
Every note is white
Every soul’s a song
Every love can fight
Pages as clean as dawn
This day is ours to write
Only if surrender is signed
Has destruction won
Pen in hand and poem in mind
Stories have begun
Rewrite the story and sing again
Behold the new horizon
Rebuild the glory of mice and men
A brighter sun is rising
No poet leaves and empty page
Pages are turning
Candle-light is burning
Light up my empty page

Dawn
04:05
|

|
All the nights pass waiting for a chance to seize the day
Tides draw back and lie in waiting; they return the same
Joy belongs to nature’s children, not to just the best
All too often minds are burderned, trapped until their death
But no more
Awakened we all seek
We conquer every peak
Finding our dawn
Where the sky and the sea become one
Where the orchards of life had begun
Where the dark and the shade is undone
When we see every weed as a rose
When the net in the waves overflows
When we know that the time never slows
Laughing; we rekindle dawn
Light is found in every crevice, in the smallest deed
When no oak is found among us we must plant the seed
Les fleurs les bougies combattront les pistolets
La peur elle-même est la seule chose à redouter
Les fleurs les bougies combattront les pistolets
La peur elle-même est la seule chose que nous devons craindre

How do you top the magnificence of Extinction Six? With an absolutely mesmerizing EP that shows the continued evolution of Dialith into a force to be reckoned with. Vocals that can cut like a knife or charm a cobra, grandiose melodies and RIFFS. Undertow will go down as one of, if not the most listened to songs of 2021 for me & I expect on my death bed it'll be one of the most listened to songs in my life.
