Autumn Leaves
06:54
|

|
Fields shimmering of yellow and red
The sky so dark and grey
The wind touches my face so gently
Rain falls to a wondrous soil
Remembering the light
Remembering the warm
Facing the dark
Facing the cold
The leaves falling from the trees
Sometimes yellow, sometimes red
Yet another sign of what's to come
Naked trees everywhere on the fields
Autumn leaves
In the mild autumn breeze
Autumn leaves
In a landscape of peace
The days are getting shorter
The nights are getting longer
The temperature is falling
The winter is coming closer
Autumn leaves
In the mild autumn breeze
Autumn leaves
In a landscape of peace

Dreams
06:29

|
Relentless ground under my bare feet
Quicksand to sharp rocks
Fierce yet soft as I wish to be
That's what this world demands
The mirror uncovers my soul
Naked and left out
The world devour me instantly
There is no escape from this world
My dreams are worn, fading away
New dreams of reason a child's dreams are lost
Leaning towards my gathered mountain I've built by my truths
But you're there stealing pieces from me replacing with yours
I will be a halfmade puzzle if I, if I would lose you
My dreams are worn, fading away
New dreams of reason a child's dreams are lost

Demon Green

You invite me to dance
Spinning world in front of my eyes
Then the time seems to stop
Now I'm feeling complete, I worship you
When you're gone, I'm in pain
I am down on my knees, begging for more
When you are here, smiling at me
We fly to places unseen, silently
You're my friend and I'm in control
My denial is my fall you see
I'm decieved by the demon in green
I have blood in my eyes yet peace in mind
Peace in mind
Cold pearls of sweat, starving will
See my rotting portrait, dying will
Drowning in vain, gasping for air
Seduced by your sweet taste, the demon in green
You're my friend and I'm in control
My denial is my fall you see
I'm decieved by the demon in green
I have blood in my eyes yet peace in mind

Throne of Void
06:04
|
|||
|
I cry for you; the pain, the loss
Our innocence is gone, a shrouded haze
And as the flowers wither
Our beauty is no more
All is lost
Like a bleak remembrance of our solemn past
Time rips away our hope
Forever
All is lost
No life will ever grow
Again
All is lost
And beneath the throne of void
All sympathy is lost
Time will not heal
The wounds we've caused ourselves
And beneath the throne of void
All hope is gone
The scars cut too deep in our flesh
To ever mend
Our voices fade
Silence echoes in our heads
Filled with regrets
Can't be undone
Last sign of appeal
We reach up for the sky
In hope to find
Forgiveness
No more dawn of life to be
Night and day are the same
Endless dark and death to come
Will it be?
Cold void all that remains now
Life and death are the same
No future, no hope, nor dreams
It will be
I mourn for you, your pain and loss
Caused by our foolishness
All swept away
We raped you of your innocence
And ravaged your beauty
All is lost

Insomnia
06:41
|
|||
|
Sleep, sleep no more
The spell was cast, distant words
Dark, a dark room
But I see far too much
Clear, clear my head
My thoughts they haunt me still
Feel, feeling cold
Escape is not my path
Darkness when the curtain falls, evasive falling down
But something is holding me back from my sweet dreams
Insomnia
Walk, walk with me
Towards a place without time
Hear, hear me beg
Please lay my soul to rest
Darkness when the curtain falls, evasive falling down
But something is holding me back from my sweet dreams
Insomnia

I'm listening to my heart
The beats you rarely hear
The drum is slowing in
My nightmare's sinking in
I'm opening my eyes
This night is new to me
Everything seems so clear
Embracing dark cold air
I am so old, my skin is cold
The night is mine, forever mine
Feeling they fade, guided by needs
Humanity is drawn from me
Still searching, forever is this curse
Trapped by these four dark walls
Unable to feel love
Eternally alone
I have seen all there is
So tired of this place
Feel my disgust of man
My oh, so deadly kiss
Time is my friend, aging has ceased
Forever young, lost is the sun
Time is my curse, everything fades
My tears are dry, death is my life

Life?
03:58

Searching the meaning of life
Try to find the answer why
What is worth is living for?
What is worth is dying for?

So I can't leave a long enough review to say everything I want. But I will say this, I love this EP. It's a great little follow up to times, and has just enough of a dynamic shift in sound to prove that Smoulder isn't a one trick pony with their first album's formula. This one really plays up the 70s prog aspects (DUST and Manilla Road influences definitely shine through even harder here). It's still Smoulder, don't get me wrong. Just a different side in some ways, all of which are good.

If Elric had a soundtrack it would be this. It's everything you want from a epic metal album. Like a hot poker in the eye, but in a good way.
