Midnight

Follow me into the storm,
breathe in the taste of the sky.
Be engulfed in midnight,
enshrouded by the burning stars.
Hear me, midnight, I'm gone,
lost in tangles of the breeze.
Hear me midnight, I'm alone,
rising like the spring.
Tread this beaten path,
walk with the wakeful dead.
Submerge yourself in my shadow.
Let me lead our way to Hell.
Hear me, midnight, I'm gone,
lost in tangles of the breeze.
Hear me midnight, I'm alone,
captured by the sea.
We burnt through the day.
We froze through the night.
We drank from the chalice.
We rejected the light.

The Burden of Shame

Images of icons look down on me,
judging me for my deceit.
I beg for them to disappear
and leave me alone in my defeat.
The light ahead is growing dim.
I chose to take this path alone.
Soon, I shall be forgotten, yet unforgiven,
as I will not be returning home.
Hang the veil over my face,
for I am no stranger to loss.
Once I am gone, bury me with roses,
but please, don't leave me a cross.
I gave in again to my demons
and have resigned myself to this fate.
May the candles around me burn out now
as I accept this as my final day.
Carry on my burden of shame.
For years, I was cast downward;
damned to face this life of anguish.
Now, I will laugh in the face of death,
and dare him to take me away.
With the last of my strength,
I scream out to the empty sky.
For there is no kingdom there for me,
nor is there for any man who may die.
In the darkest hours of my life,
I had called out to your Lord for help,
but he never answered my prayers
and I never felt his presence.
So, I will not live forever.
Nothing more can be said.
No tears, nor a moment of silence shall pass.
I am nothing but a nameless sinner.

Prison Blacksburg, Virginia
In the desolate mountains of Southwest Virginia, three miserable souls set out to build monoliths of bleak, atmospheric doom. They created three monstrous tracks before disappearing forever. This is their legacy.
