Bearers of Truth
04:26
|
|||
|
Far angels, bearers of truth,
pounce upon my fettered soul.
Enclosed by a wall of pain,
I can’t hear the seraph calling me.
To crush the barrier
is to unmask the divinity.
Now tear off my useless face,
I will remain in your possession.
I’ll throw my old clothes away
and wrap myself in darkness.
Relieved, embracing eternity,
I’ll bear the truth from this time forward.

Possessed
04:01
|

|
Walking through the mist,
wondered where the sun went.
Thick air chokes me,
I can't remember my name.
Like the black picture I once draw,
feeling afraid and alone.
Where is the morning light,
light that I saw before?
It’s inside you, someone said.
And the mist is here no more.
Slowly, I merge with darkness surrounding me,
I sit down with my arms crossed.

Absence
05:28
|
|||
|
Frightening pictures from the past,
followed by voices,
they never let me sleep.
Hundred tales were said
since I’ve journeyed across the land.
How many nights I hoped, endlessly,
for His departure.
I return after many years
and what do I stumble upon?
His old grey-bearded face,
those omnipotent eyes,
They never let me sleep.

Soulless
07:30
|
|||
|
Approaching salvation,
lurking from the dark,
I’ve tortured my troubled mind
for quite some time.
Soulless, at the time,
with scars from the past.
I was banned from the circle of life.
I did not see the forest from the trees.
My heart is restless.
Allow my eyes to close.
I just wanted silence.

Throne of Death
04:29
|
|||
|
Centuries have past
and time left its mark
on this once beautiful land.
And yet He sits still, untouched,
on His perpetual throne of death.
Now only few desperate corpses
wonder the land.
Clear waters filled with blood,
Over the years sorrow prevailed.

Resurrection
05:05
|
|||
|
You are here today and gone tomorrow.
Without a word. Either way, you are here today.
Forlorn tomorrow, come this way,
time is of the essence.
Follow my footsteps
in to the night.
Don't be afraid.
Have I ever failed you?
As my fire burned throughout eternity
so can your light reappear and shine.
Again, time is of the essence,
I won't come for you again.

As Old as the Hills
09:04
|
|||
|
As old as the hills,
People said behind my back.
And those few are resting
peacefully now.
Cannot listen to the birds anymore,
their laugh drove me mad.
I wish my hands to untangle,
I wish to stand on my feet.

Gaerea's first release of "Unsettling Whispers" was in 2018, and since, they dared define a "black metal" niche of their own, they dared to walk a new path and stir shit up a bit in the realm of BM, this album is a masterpiece and a milestone proving that it can be done, provided the band can pull it off, and they did, oh they did! Gloomy, dark, post-BM sludgy whatever, it's Gaerea, and this one belongs in my BC collection, the end.

A brilliant album. Enough said. (Short but heartfelt comment. It's just I'm late to the party and everyone's already said how great this album is. 😉)
