Tag: Shape of Despair

Funeral Doom Metal band.


As if through the mist
Fading slow
From this moment
From this life

Of no fulfillment
Of no discovery

Only the passing
Only the flow…

Leaving from all
That once had a meaning

To reach deep
For the inner desolation

To awaken the emptiness
That was always there
Here, in the stillness
A yearning
For an ending

Shape of Despair – The Inner Desolation

Chained
To this feeling
Into something
There are no words for

Stranded in thoughts

Shape of Despair – Solitary Downfall

We contain the ending

Shape of Despair – Return to the Void

Long after
It was too late
To find back
All meaningful
The glow long gone
The spark faded (and smothered)

And though I saw
The others
Advance and vanish into the
distance…

I chose to stay behind
To wander astray
To remain unfound
To merge with these dark thoughts
As I saw and felt this existence
As mere reflection
In slow time

Shape of Despair – Reflection in Slow Time

The effect of feelings
All lost their strength
All lost their meaning

Sinking horizons
Drowning the view

Shape of Despair – Forfeit

Approaching form
Approaching a deeper meaning

My fragments lay scattered
Buried deep
Never awaken

Still dreaming of life

Shape Of Despair – The Distant Dream of Life

It would have been so different
Without this burden
This sense of nothingness
The lifelong defeat
That took us here
To a distance unreachable
To a grey indifference
Into these vast
Monotony fields

Shape of Despair – Monotony Fields

Arisen in vain to a life,
Bleeding inner to suffer with time.
Endlessly lost and still searching
For something; someday…

Obsession & deceit
To burn a mark for a lifetime.
Boundaries to brake,
Reached from the edge of time.
To rebuild the past
For something that will everlast.
Just searching for to find itself
In still-motion.
[…]

Serve the frail mind,
Escape through the lifetime
To glance for your dismal youth.

Get closer,
Closer to your own faith.

Shape of Despair – Still-Motion

I used to feel…
I used to sense what were
Inside of me
To feel waves of difference
Waves which brought me to live
I enjoyed this life in me
Breathing and feeling
Burning and suffocating
Didn’t curse the hour
Which gave birth to me
Didn’t curse another life
When bearing death inside

Now all things I do bear
Are all gone and free
This, myself…
Now fleeing around death
Cursing the hour
And another life…
Which whom I used to care
Now…
Watching myself
My own life
Fading to afar…
Listening these voices
And trying to tell them
That I will soon be gone

Shape of Despair – Curse Life

Nothing left to feel
nor to understand.

I did not want
to live my life.
Nor did I even want
to live for my death…

Shape of Despair – …To Live for My Death…

Nothing left to feel
nor to understand.

Shape of Despair – …To Live for My Death…
