lyrics

A promising tale, swiftly severed
Brought from within the haze

So quick to shut the book of confessions
So quick to resign and look the other way
The premise of resolve, simply within reach
But a reach beyond your reason
Awakening from my sleep
I find myself left in the cold
We were one, a unity amongst chaos
We held each other in light and dark
Continue down your path
And leave the smoke behind
The ones close to you
Left to ponder
Bridges reduced to ash
Far and wide, they burn
Leaping from the infernos
Eager to start new ones
Who will be next?
When will the next flint be struck?
Relieved only by your ego
Unaware of the torment you leave
You were the pinnacle of me
No longer
You were my salvation
No more
Thrice I have been wounded
By the touch of your blade
A final jab through my heart
Until nothing is left
Steal the air from my lungs
So that I may forget you forever

by Grandeur

supported by 8 fans who also own “Scorching Collapse”

More amazing black metal from Erech, whose other bands Ancient Mastery and Carathis are favorites of mine. With Grandeur the music is harsh, fast paced, melodic, riff-heavy guitar driven black metal that is a bit more raw and less epic than Erech's other acts. Jody B.
