lyrics

"There watched I for the Dead, but no ghost woke"

Bleakness consumes the light of day, among these dreary resting grounds
The buried ones I named and called, yet not one soul was to be found
The essence of all spiritual life has been crushed by obscurity
Once eternal to the Night, forever we’ll be gone!

Their deprivation draws me near – tempting me to disappear
Beneath these shattered, forlorn skies, a blissful emptiness has evolved
This stillness has morbidly enthralled; my weary mind to be withdrawn
Ever so frequently, I’ve lurked the graveyards in despair
In seek of the departed, who’ve been unaware that they’re no longer here
Oblivious we shall become, the moment we cease to exist
Unconscious we shall forever remain;
once our experience has been dismissed

Eager to languish among the black womb of tranquility
I lust to lay this flesh to rest for an eternity
Oblivion, please won’t you come and take this light away
O’ Death, seize my breathe, negate me from the living!

Oftentimes I wonder, why am I still alive?
Day by day I wake up contemplating suicide
I want to forget that I ever lived;
from this world I shall now hide
As I disappear I’ve never felt so satisfied
Deep down I feel nothing: all sensation has been deprived
Exhuming a casket so that I can grieve inside
Peering at a vacant skull right through its hallowed eyes
Forever desensitized; my will to live will never survive

Tonight! I’ll become one with these worthless remains
Wherein this perfect dark every mortal fades
There is no heaven or hell to believe

Anxiously I await my demise
Everything will die forever
Everyone will die alone
In the end there is nothing-
But a finale of ashes and bones
Overthrown by Oblivion

My first exposure to Inferi was seeing them live with Shadows of Intent. They were supporting this album. Unbelievably awesome live show and the greatest possible way to discover this amazing band. Love everything they produce. Obstacle of Affliction

First WTF was google music actually throwing something good into my feed. Second WTF was everything every goddamn member of this band does. This and the previous album have been on repeat for weeks. All other music tastes like diet water. Help. Gruso
