lyrics

(SWE)

En sviken moder
följd av en gryning så röd
Hon sökte hoppet
men hon fann
En ilska så djup
som sorgen i hennes själ

I sin vrede hon hör
ett barnaskrik som vinden för
Av tårar likt sten
på knä hon faller
ensam vid vanvettets kant

En hånfull röst
om löftet hon gav
ekar i mörkrets sken
Förbarmat hon ser
att i svartkonstens kall
hon drivits till ondskans lust

Vilsen hon står i lågornas dans
hon kan bara se
Ett oändligt mörker
bland skuggornas skratt
som fört henne ner
Hopplöst hon tar
barnet i famn
så fagert men kallt

I stunden en klarhet hon ser
frånsäger ondskan och ler
Med lättnad i elden hon går
ej mer hon mörkret skall så

I flamman hennes synder ska renas
en sorgsen själ utan väg att gå
Ensam hon ska vila
så kall bland aska och sten

(ENG)

A betrayed mother, followed, by a dawn so red
She sought the hope but she found, a fury so deep
Alike is the sorrow, in her soul

In her wrath, she hears
A childs scream, which follows the wind
From tears like stone, on knees she falls
Alone, by sanitys brink

A mocking voice, speaks pledges she gave
It echoes from nocturnal glow,
In beseech she glares
That the dark arts she spoke
Has driven her to spiteful lust

Abandoned she stands
By the flaming prance
She can only see,
An eternal darkness,
By shadows laughter,
Of whom drove her down

Hopeless, she reaches
Embraces the child
So graceful but cold

The last hour, lucidity she sees
Curses the evil, and smiles
With conviction, through fire she'll walk
No more her darkness shall sow

By fire, her sins shall be purged
A sorrowful soul, with no path to tread
Forsaken she shall rest
So cold, by ashes and stone

The Death of Gaia
by OFFICIUM TRISTE

supported by 4 fans who also own “Skärselden”

An absolutely amazing album that reaches you to the bottom of the abyss. Gaia takes you by the hand, tells you that you're not alone in this, the pain is over, the misunderstanding of your pain is over and accompanied by keyboards, violins, acoustic guitars, cello and amazing vocals, she pulls you out of the disgusting mire of your mind and together you embark on a journey of melancholy, despondency, hope, pessimism and the seasons. tenebriscaedes

Satanath's daily promo email worked! It brought this album to my attention, and I liked it so much I decided to buy it and a few other Satanath releases while I was at it 💸 I'm struggling to think of a useful comparison right now, but this is definitely good black metal :) Jarak
