TERSIVEL LYRICS

1. She

Beyond the walls where waves collide
There's a fire burning,
Burning with perfection 'neath the flesh
Inside the halls, my mind declines
There's an illusion failing,
But she's trying hard to shape my way (of thinking)

She's the one who built this prison I'm the one who broke inside
And against myself, I made my stand
Then I tried to cross the waters to become invisible
And without my flesh, I lost the way

Beyond the bridge, a distant cloud
There's a noise so silent
Hearing nothing can be loud as well
In the end, I see the waters
There's a light, it's shining!
But I am afraid that now it's too late

She's the one who built this prison I'm the one who broke inside
And against myself, I made my stand
Then I tried to cross the waters to become invisible
And without my flesh, I lost the way

Time, you see, is slipping away undoing a wall of sand, come...
Time, you feel, is releasing the self your trip is about to start, come...
Some memories fade and so does my soul

2. Weeping Iron Tears

With (my) mind unclouded I pierce the light
With a broken heart, I welcome darkness
With soul enslaved and feathered hand
I become the path without beginning nor end

You let this sickness grow inside
One seed that makes a forest
And embraced the night in the death of the day

I reach the crest of light. I reach the crest of pain
I died and watched it flow, the body... futile
Mysterious devotion just to set our own destruction
(But) the mask I wear was mine

I am a child of Earth and starry Sky
Tell the gods here I am: the Bacchic One
I'll descend and walk through this decay
And with an Orphic voice I'll unravel my illusions

I reach the crest of light. I reach the crest of pain
I died and watched it flow, the body... futile
Mysterious devotion just to set our own destruction
(But) the mask I wear was mine

The mask I wear was mine
Esa máscara es mía
Masken jag bär var min

3. Moving On

Where do I belong? When do I belong?
Maybe the silence will remain
In my constant soul, as an unwanted friend
The flesh has to fall and the vessel has to rot
Pushing this life to a written end
To the Orphic void, resetting time

I made up my mind, this will be my last
Even if it leads nowhere, I want to try
There's no turning back when life seems so far
Even if I die, dying is moving on

I'm dying away, I'm dying away and the now is now forever

I forgot my own voice. I drank from Lethe too long
I was the one who saw the gate
To the Orphic void, and dared to pass

I made up my mind, this will be my last
Even if it leads nowhere, I want to try
There's no turning back when life seems so far
Even if I die, dying is moving on

4. The Ferryman

I seek the seed of persistence
I breathe the very existence
I take away your sorrow and I’ll keep it all inside
You wander like there's no tomorrow
You're wasting time that won’t come back
You're a tiny thing in charge but not for long

Styx and Acheron, dividing us. Your own catabasis denied

So wasted your time for creation. So short your sight of damnation
I'm wrecking this boat for once, I could be a better man
The ferryman
It seems I'm losing control. No coin can fill this empty space
I'm wrecking this boat for once, I could be a better man
The ferryman

A sordid god, poor in richness
I faced eternity, fearless
May I breathe for once? May I see the Sun?

So wasted your time for creation. So short your sight of damnation
I'm wrecking this boat for once, I could be a better man
The ferryman
It seems I'm losing control. No coin can fill this empty space
I'm wrecking this boat for once, I could be a better man
The ferryman

I climb the dark to the outside world,
I want to see what they call home,
I want to die and meet the ferryman.

5. Shivering Deadly Cold

Y así se desarman los días, y así las horas,
Y así los sueños sucumben a la melancolía
Y así las máscaras desfilan,
Hacia la muerte desde la vida
Dejando atrás la soledad de los huesos

A stream of light shuts my eyes
Vapors surround me, they hold me back
So alone, I've lost track
Through desolation is my way out

Let me pray to the god of waste
To red vines which give my soul comfort
This wrong you are running from
Becomes the symbol of humanity's loss
Lead the trees under your spell
Lead the rocks which stoned my nature
I'm yours in my purest form
To come to you, you must free me

A stream of light shuts my eyes
Vapors surround me, they hold me back
So alone, I've lost track
Through desolation is my way out

Let me pray for Apollo's son
For the Sun which gives life to all things
This road will lead to death
And seal the gates of humanity's pain

I shall imitate the gods
The siren-sound which call us all
I shall emulate their powers
And I'll shiver in the deathly cold
I shall pay for my weakness
I sink into nothing

Y así nos iremos todos, dándole paso al silencio,
Dejando versos sin decir, dejando nada más que ausencia,
Hundiéndonos en la nada, separándonos del Ser

I sink into nothing

6. Transmigration of the Soul

Out of control, we fall
Into this life to taste the Self
I know we are coming from the darkness
One day we must return

All rites belong to me
I filled the void, the shadows
The one who's loud over the silence
Can walk out from this life into the next

You who brings the light under the earth
And like a beast, you feast
With the souls of the dead
Grant me entrance, let me in

Light the incense, turn to face south
Inscribe the symbol. Recite:
"When life is ending,
Then life begins"

I am flowing in the stream of time
