Godless ruler your fate was sealed
As the embers were smothered
Behind walls of ichor
The king rests inside
The shadow of the monarch
A flame lost in the dark
Never to return again
Staring into the abyss
Eternal contemplation
Eternal damnation
Ichor covered skies
Creep as daylight dies
Sinks into the hearts
Broken, torn apart
Corruption consumes them all
Madness breaching the walls
All consuming void, the king gazed in silence
Hands clenched upon the throne
The mob flees in horror
It engulfs the walls
Ichor covered skies
Creep as daylight dies
Sinks into the hearts
Broken, torn apart
All consuming void
All devouring void
All devouring void, the king screams in silence
Nails claw upon the throne
Faceless shadows come
Rotten to the core
To the core
Once ripe with light and great splendour
Now grim, stained
The throne decays
No one to open the castle gates
Inside the king awaits
Decrepit kingdom of ash and bone
The void claims its prize
Be still, untouched, upon demise
As we devour
As we consume
Such things cant be undone
There is no flame to light
These deep and crooked halls
There is nothing
There is nothing
Nothing
As we consume
As we devour
Corruption consumes them all
Madness breaches the walls
Oblivious to the concept of what you brought forth
This cant be undone, all is left to rot
But a shape emerges from the breach
Stretched claws for all to reach
Spew forth unholy sacraments
Consume the holy testament
Consume
There is no flame to light
These deep and crooked halls
There is nothing
No flames to light
No life in sight
As the king rots alone
As we consume
As we devour

Gaerea's first release of "Unsettling Whispers" was in 2018, and since, they dared define a "black metal" niche of their own, they dared to walk a new path and stir shit up a bit in the realm of BM, this album is a masterpiece and a milestone proving that it can be done, provided the band can pull it off, and they did, oh they did! Gloomy, dark, post-BM sludgy whatever, it's Gaerea, and this one belongs in my BC collection, the end. sachavonkarl74
