lyrics

When the night casts its shadow over my senses
I can't find rest for my soul
Bitter thoughts and endless pondering
Keep my weary mind awake
When I lie down to escape the cruel reality
The pain catches up with me
When I'm surrounded by oppressive silence
The hell breaks loose inside my head

I'm staring into darkness with my tired eyes
In hope to glimpse a ray of hope
But all I can see is the mirroring grimace
Of my anguish and hopelessness

I'm going through this nightmare with open eyes
Lifeless existence, a life that I despise
A burden too heavy to bear
Wounds so deep, they will never heal

My body - a casket for a dying soul
I leave behind the very last fall
I lay enchained and paralysed
While eternal winter unfolds

Apathy - a soul so deeply scarred
Syncope - no strength, no will to breathe
Apnoea - the breath of life is gone
Asystolia - a heart strangled by grief

Wrecked dreams and drown hopes
Adrift at sea, no land in sight
I wish to sink to the ocean floor
To escape the air that keeps my pain alive

Do you know that feeling of facing a cold, misty autumn day when you're dressed for it, in all your waterproofs, a good pair of boots, and you can just enjoy the atmosphere? This album is that, but for your ears. doobat

The Death of Gaia
by OFFICIUM TRISTE

supported by 7 fans who also own “Apnoea”

An absolutely amazing album that reaches you to the bottom of the abyss. Gaia takes you by the hand, tells you that you're not alone in this, the pain is over, the misunderstanding of your pain is over and accompanied by keyboards, violins, acoustic guitars, cello and amazing vocals, she pulls you out of the disgusting mire of your mind and together you embark on a journey of melancholy, despondency, hope, pessimism and the seasons. tenebriscaedes
