Released on the album ‘Welcome the Dead’
Lyrics: Barberini
Music: Barberini
Dedicated to the memory of Christopher Barberini – brother, friend and metalhead (RIP)
Sway my weakened hand
For I cannot control this urge to break
Carried away by the waves of fate
I cried for you to stay, but
He still dragged you astray
Reaching our for reasons
Stretching ignorance for selfish bliss
Cast Away – Taken Away
Slipped into the mouth of God
No air to breathe/Pulled into slumber/No void to fill
I(We) fight – He smites
I’d crawl up in sin to save what’s/who’s right
I (We) can’t thrive on broken faith
It all keeps falling to pieces
There’s no grand masterplan
The walls keep rotting away
No true essence to be found
Lore and lie will not suffice
His guilt embodied in a tainted kiss
A rapture of love
A piece of death inside us all
I’m(We’re) afraid – I’m (we’re) weakly made
I(We) fear the thought of death so I(We) cower and pray
It comes to us all
Nobodies word will save you (us)
An outstretched hand I cannot reach
A call I cannot heed
Your drowning eyes so hard to see
Every wish you made will live on in me
An outstretched hand I’ll never reach
A call I’ll never heed
Your drowning eyes I’ll always see
Every wish you made will live and die in me
