lyrics

It’s not yet two days later and I can’t tell if I’m suffering. A weight has been lifted, but a new weight is coming which could become blood in brain, in turn becoming blood in body. I am clinging to something as a train thunders by. The only question I had left has now been answered. But I must remember that this can harm nothing else. That much has been proven beyond doubt.

Can anything be said out loud about this? And it would be so loud. It would be so loud. I can’t do it here, but at moments I feel it. Has there been any change? There is worth in too much. Do apologies enter into it? How did doubts re-arise? Or did they ever leave? Perhaps I was pretending.

It would be so loud.

Am I ever awake to life? I struggle to see through my eyelids. I need to find a way to be ashamed in front of you. To become numb to yearning. To feel guilt more than shame. Trumpets blare at the back of my mind and all that there is is in muddy half-confusion. What will become of us? This is too much to bear and beyond this everything will dissolve.

Dissolve.

VOID
by Wolvennest

supported by 5 fans who also own “Shown”

Un serpent qui se mord la queue, symbole de la vie qui retourne à la mort, et au centre, ce cercle comprenant des motifs triangulaires colorés... Wolvennest, formation belge rassemblant des pointures du black metal, lance sa carrière avec ce premier album, VOID. Un peu à la manière de l'iconographie de la fête des morts, WLVNNST habille la Mort de ses plus beaux habits. Elle est morbide avec la narration de Sharon Shazzula faisant apparaître les démons ("Void"), attrayante, psychédélique... Jordan Vauvert
