Stirred by the sound of death ringing in my ears. Expelled from the ether [and] cast back down to this wasteland, among fallen remains [and] coalescing shades of grey. I stare vacantly, my eyes diffuse. Only barren land, my forlorn grave. Rising from the ash, monolithic, towering above these ruins. I feel its pull, some strange magnetism drawing me to its core. The cull of steel and stone. I falter beneath its looming shadow with each painful step I endure. Skyward and silent, disparaged and abandoned; nothing as it seemed. I feel myself unravelling. Sorrow flows through me as her voice resounds through distant whispers. As I reach the summit, step out on the edge, look down with labored breath and embrace the end. Before I seal my fate, one final glance at a lifeless world. The outlying distance defies all logic. Eyes frozen in wonder. I stare beyond fallen remains and coalescent shades of grey, where signs of life abide. Where signs of life abide, beyond the fallen remains.

The guitar work is perfect, the bass and drums hold it down and seriously bring it, while the vocal range is absolutely brilliant...OH YEAH, and it's HEAVY! Cidimon Arustavi
