MYRIDIAN LYRICS

1. Passage


[Instrumental]



2. To The Dying Sun


[Music & Lyrics: Scott Brierley]

My body lies
Still 'neath the weeping boughs
No wounds mark my flesh
No sickness sought my death

Years left me cold and hollow
A life of loss and sorrow

No will left to walk on
I give my life to the dying sun

[Chorus]
No golden halls to welcome me home
Black silence is now all I know

Seasons long past deprived me, of all I loved
My torn homeland, left behind so long ago
My king and queen, long lost to the sea
My wife and child, slain before me

Alone in this winter, I stood the last
The last of my kin
None now left, now I am gone
None now live to remember our fall

Memories fading
Darkness encroaching
My skin cold, my eyes closed
My grief laid to rest

[Chorus]
No golden halls to welcome me home
Black silence is now all I know


3. Veil Of Sorrow


[Music & Lyrics: Scott Brierley]

Blinded by the dark
Imprisoned by the night
Internal fire gone cold
Hope cast from my soul

Pale lies the mist
Clouding my eyes
Bereft of sleep's embrace
No heed to my silent cries

[Chorus]
Staggering through a black haze
The rain, a curtain of cold grey
A fell day, no hope for the 'morrow
Drowning 'neath my veil of sorrow

Despair haunting my waking hours
In silence so cold
Mourning all I've ever known
Left to hunger, alone

Shadows beyond my sight
Respite beyond my reach
Gasping for air to breathe
Drowning in my own grief

I wander these woods
Their grace, my solace
Shade under falling leaves
Naught but a hollow peace

The morning light wavers
Faintly through the trees
My burden never free
As darkness surrounds me

[Chorus]
Staggering through a black haze
The rain, a curtain of cold grey
A fell day, no hope for the 'morrow
Drowning 'neath my veil of sorrow


4. No Dawn


[Music: Scott Brierley, lyrics: Felix Lane]

We are the fallen
We are the victorious dead
The first in line
At the gates of death
Slain in battle
Our lives lost not in vain
Here we shall see no dawn

Now at the end
All shall come to light
The atrocities committed
By the ones we were sworn to
The heinous acts we performed
In their names without knowledge
And now we must pay
No rebirth, no dawn

With regret, with remorse
We are turned away from the halls
Destined to be cast in flame
The burning depths await
With a cry and a shout
I turn to my brethren
No, we will not go
We will atone for our crimes

[Chorus]
We were the fallen
We were the victorious dead
Slain in the line of duty
A duty only now fully known
Only now in death do we see
The evil we were sworn to
And we shall return at dawn

And we have returned
With vengeance
In place of loyalty
We march on their palace
One hundred across
And one hundred back
We issue a challenge
Come forth and test our vengeance


5. Solitude's Embrace


[Music & lyrics: Scott Brierley]

The snow falls silently 'cross the coomb
The wind's howl echoing through the crags
Alone I watch the season's throes
Here at world's end where no life roams

North of sun's light
Under a winter's moon
In pale white night
A blissful solitude

Far away from fear, love, hate
Memories too faint to feel pain
Alone, I, whisper to the cold
Here, at one with soil and stone

[Chorus]
These dead mountains I call home
To these bleak woods I speak my woes
Above barren lands, under godless skies
Here I remain until I die

For days immemorial
Reflecting on uncounted years
Hearing the cries of friend and foe
Watching the death of the world below

Shadows taunt my name
Oathbreaker, exile, forsaken

Shade no longer my shelter
Voices pull me from my slumber

I once looked upon the plains
I once spoke the names of the world
I once walked without fear
I once knew love

Wandering far from here
Away from this cursed gloom
Returning to distant memories
Flames that burn anew

Along frozen lakeshores
Across seas of ice
Daylight welcomes me home
South of winter's bite

[Chorus]
These dead mountains I call home
To these bleak woods I speak my woes
Above barren lands, under godless skies
Here I return when I die


6. Under The Fading Light


[Music & lyrics: Scott Brierley]

The veil of night creeps closer
Smothering the distant hills
Fear now will roam the darkness
In this forsaken land

No more will the day hold back the night
Hope no longer restraining the blight
No more will the sun caress thy skin
Only the pale moon remains, both boon and bane

Shards of twilight pierce the gloom
Woodlands void of all that moves

[Chorus]
Silence falls upon the empty vales
Black whispers drift across the winds
No shelter from the end of life
Despair to all under the fading light

Those who traverse these haunted woods
Tell tales of towns, left bleak and cold
Of slaughtered folk, of deserted homes
Of beasts that lust for blood and bone

The shadow descends upon shallow graves
Awakening ghouls of a forgotten age

Howls tear through the silent forests
Padded footsteps echo through the mist
No safety left in the haunts of man
These fiends rule this darkened realm

[Chorus]
Silence falls upon the empty vales
Black whispers drift across the winds
No shelter from the end of life
Despair to all under the fading light

Flee or fight, all will be consumed
No morning will rise, this night be thy doom


7. Starless


[Music & lyrics: Felix Lane]

And there she lies, broken on the grass
Awaiting the moments til her life is gone
Her father weeps by her side
Torn by anguish
He holds her hand tightly
As she slowly slips away

A starless sky above
Once the reflection of her life
Never to see the lights again
Now that she has died

A starless sky above
Once the reflection of her life
Never to see the lights again
Now that she has died

Cursed to live in darkness
We've lost what once was our guide
Will we ever know peace again
Now that she has died

One by one they fade
Each extinguished by the dripping of her blood
Only the moon will remain
Alone in a starless sky

How could they do this
How could they end the lights of the night
Why would they do this
Condemning us to live under a blackened sky

Give me back my daughter
Give us back the stars
Grant me my revenge
Now that she has died


8. Ethereal Storm


[Music: Felix Lane & Scott Brierley, lyrics: Felix Lane]

What have we done?
Why are we forsaken?
The prophet speaks
Of the God's deception
On a chilly night
Seeking answers in the fire
The look on his face
Pale with fear

He speaks of a storm
Of a terrifying light
He speaks of death
Of a final epic fight
He whispers of fires
Like none we've ever seen
The end of time
All will die

So I set off on a journey
To the lands we once knew
There I will find the truth
With a full-score of warriors with me
We awaited the sun

[Chorus]
And on the edge of the earth I see the Ethereal Storm
A sky filled with endless wings to herald our doom
A march upon our existence with genocide as their goal
I set alight a flame, may it guide us through the dark

And at that very moment
I curse the Gods
A sign of our faith
Of our will to live

I raise my sword to the sky
To pledge an oath
To protect all life
Though it will mean my death

And onwards we rode
Into the eye of the storm
Our heads held high
And we shall know no fear

Come fight me Angdroth
And Visier and Visior
O Gods of the Earth
Come meet my blade

I have seen the image of the end
A face bathed in blood and a scorched world to behold
Spears have been rattled and swords unsheathed
I do not stand alone as I challenge our gods

[Chorus]
And on the edge of the earth I see the ethereal storm
A sky filled with endless wings to herald our doom
A march upon our existence with genocide as their goal
I set alight a flame, may it guide us through the dark

See the world burn
See the world on fire
Humanity is crushed
All that which once was great
Is now nought but ashes and earth
We fought
And we lost
Curse the Gods

See the world burn
See the world on fire
