Thorns 03:59
Rose petals white, covering the pavement Of my garden in the night, flowers faded Mirror keeps silent, can’t see my reflection Carefully reminds me of my imperfection Wounded by the thorns, painfully embracing The flowers that are meant to speak for me Love is left unspoken, love no longer matters Left unsheltered, trampled by eternity Rose petals white, taken out by winds Cold and heavy, I hear winter sings Taken out by winds memories are gone She takes a rest under the tombstone Wounded by the thorns, hands are bleeding Blood is slowly dripping on the ground I can't feel the difference between death and living Everlasting winter all around Black skies eat the night No sound, no stars out Her hands are the same cold as mine But I'm forever cursed to be alive
3.
Put me out of my misery Night descends, but I can not sleep Blood hunger is felt on my teeth Pictures of the past now torn to pieces So cold, feels freezing It’s the time of the night creatures Blade hurts less than my being Stab me in the heart with a sharp silver Wandering in the night, Pale Swordsman Seven blades, seven wounds Light pours casted by the full moon Let the thirst be quenched with a life Fade into my embrace Stepping into the void But the boundaries are yet far to cross Crystal-like eyes unclosed Night calls, I can hear the voice
4.
Would you follow me Would you ever share my fate If I walk away, I’ll be never back again Seven blades ran into my heart again Still the same, through the night I make my way Darkness over the garden Night reigns and the world suffers With hands pale like a marble Hold me close as a lover Eight ancient trees Hide me in your shadows I said a prayer thrice But there’s only silence Foliage whisper be heard And my sentence be told me To bleed for nothing, pretending That I deserve it Breathing the fragrance of night I long for the end For stars to light up black skies For a savior to lend me a hand Darkness over the garden Night reigns and the world suffers With hands pale like a marble Hold me close as a lover Wandering in the night, Pale Swordsman

Selfless gaze into the abyss Shadows raging in my skull Fix me please, stop all these Thoughts that poisoning my soul Stars are getting dimmer Close my eyes so I can see Pale blue fire shimmers Rising sun is not for me Change is coming I can feel Rapture strengthening my will Time has come. Is someone Waiting for the freezing sun Void-like womb embraces us Fear is gone. Day is done Shadow's here. No need to run Lullabies for anyone

Crystal 04:26
Steel feels heavy in my grip Through the night I go, I can never sleep It’s my path, where my hunger leads me I can’t trust anything my eyes see Lights on, castle in the night Past the walls I hear someone inside Blood spills out of empty life My heart is being covered with a crystal ice Wounds hurt, the pain cannot be ceased Wounds hurt, as they gently bleed So cold, embraced by freezing winds Can only regret my atrocities She lays lifeless on my hands Mirrors show no signs of my presence No stars out on the black skies My tears are turning into a crystal ice This night is a nightmare Silence, darkness overwhelms, I’m blinded Far away from here, still hidden The castle of love, but I know how to find it Put my memories on fire Wipe away my tears and make me violent Crystal ice covers the entire world While she’s having a dream of a new world
10.
Swordsman 02:52
The moon floats across the black skies No stars to be seen out tonight New life, what it feels like Snow falls, frozen tears hit the ground Winds whispering their secrets Wandering in the night, I keep them For you, I rid myself of evil Pale light gleams on my sword I cut the night as I’m going forward New life is what I long for Since I can’t bear my world anymore Sorrow is my only feeling Through this everlasting season I’m going without any reason Winds whispering their secrets Wandering in the night, I keep them For you, I rid myself of evil Gathering the stars for you I rid myself of evil
