Verse 1
In the halls of apathy and wait
Pillars of mirth crushed under the weight
Cathedral of exuberance
Turned to lair of rancor and hate
Winds of murkiness those withering powers
Howling lay amongst the towers
Bleak walls and descending ceiling
Oppressive surroundings and forlorn mind
Chorus 1
Conscious is dulled by the minds vastness
A lifetime of suffering envy and madness
The deafening sound of the wind’s lyric
Vividly distorted yet calm and coherent
A sanguine toast to the dreams that have died
And coming to peace with near certain demise
Synapsis explode while the mind starts to splinter
Black is the light of my perpetual winter
Verse 2
Barren, unaided desolate being
Self-inflicted listless unseeing
The candid licks of flames
Suffocate and smother all the anguish
Hereby is the mendacious one hung
The pretender under the wicked sun
Dremel of rain colluding with the dust of our remnant fugue a weighted gray leaving us unmoved
Chorus 2
Conscious is dulled by the minds vastness
A lifetime of suffering envy and madness
The deafening sound of the wind’s lyric
Vividly distorted yet calm and coherent
A sanguine toast to the dreams that have died
And coming to peace with near certain demise
I am the trifling one - I am a sinner
Black is the light of my perpetual winter
Verse 3
As darkness blends into the moon
My silent hollow embraces its hewn
A cold usurper attached to the frail
Precipitous shadows it hales
The dreaded night caller an aberrant thief
Maleficent Bearer of the devil’s wreath
The warming promise of a cold embrace
True juxtaposition the revenants await
Chorus 3
Conscious is dulled by the minds vastness
A lifetime of suffering envy and madness
The deafening sound of the wind’s lyric
Vividly distorted yet calm and coherent
A sanguine toast to the dreams that have died
And coming to peace with near certain demise
My daylight descends hear my final whisper
Black is the light of my perpetual winter

Every track on this album kicks ass, yes. But being one who has read all of Dante Alighieri's "Divine Comedy", I am in awe of the tribute that "...Depart From So Much Evil" is to it! Superb masterpiece, masterfully performed! annimax_metal
