lyrics

Beyond The Bounds Of Sleep

Fears like vultures circle. Hands cold and raw
Crawling upwards on my spine
Locked away with myself, scorn in the looking glass
My mirror companion makes me retch, makes me choke

And my sleep is bleak and torn
Writhed til the crack of dawn
How I seek for rest to come
Utter oblivion

And I weep for all that's born
Destined to lapse and mourn
The misery-inflicting self
Haunts my afflicted shell
And the sheets are falling down
Tearclad unto the ground
As my blood runs in reverse
This wretched life I curse

Roaming paths across the fields
Crows are cawing in the wind
Lying dazed here at the edge of night
Emerging exit dreams beset the mind

Still my sleep is bleak and torn
Writhe til the crack of dawn
How I seek for rest to come
Utter oblivion

Night engulf me
Become as one with my gloom
Devour this abject nonentity

No awakening at morn
No anguish ever reborn
Finally I exceed
The boundaries of mundane sleep

This was truly a revelation. I was getting started with funeral doom, working on something with my headphones on... Then came Déluge... my jaw actually dropped, I stopped what I was doing and, wide-eyed, just listened to the track, baffled and amazed. After the album was over (I never do this), I went to lay down with my headphones to enjoy it over again. I rarely heard (and felt) this much power and emotion in an album. Until I find something better, this is my landmark for peak funeral doom. fluo
