Treatment Begins
06:39
|

I awake to find no one can hear me
Tonight, I am here on my own
The sights, the colours are escaping
I'll stay right here where they left me
Maybe I'm trapped in fearful apprehension
Forever waiting for a moment of clarity
The pale white coats, the empty space to which they led me
This has become my final place
I like to sleep in darkness
To leave behind the shadows
And in the evening whispers
I thrash alone in anguish
Restlessly wait for sunrise
A fickle game to be played
And with the light of morning
Treatment begins, oh help me
Through all the horror and the nightmares
The restless sleep, insanity
The walls cave in to frown upon me

Pushed into the fire
Where you left me to drown
I yearned to take you to a place
Where the sun sets forever
Pull yourself into me
Never let go
And I will be king
Until we end the night
Neverending, the plight of our loneliness
The sound of a dying swallow
Swept to the frost below
I heard you whisper in the silence
Sweetly, with endeavour
Beyond the last wretched cinders
A candle lights the way

Still Waiting
03:00
|
|||
Please remember in the morning
When the doctors try to wake you
The dreams we had for tomorrow
It never comes, but I'm still waiting
Please remember tomorrow
When the tears flow down from your eyes
The way you looked at me
And how you felt in my arms

To Feel Alive
07:34
|

Step to a quiet place
Where spirits fly
And protruding signs stop drowning out your vision
And know the taste
To swallow up each drop of hope
Falling just for you
Until the moment's gone it's yours forever
So hold on tight just like you're dreaming
And when you wake it will be gone
Hold on
Brace yourself
Lost in the moment
When the street lights turn off
A smile left frozen on his face
A wretched body left to be

Forever
08:57
|
|||
Why don't you stay, lay here with me forever
Through frost, through rain and moonlit nights
Until we find eternal rest beneath the soil
I'll pray we never die
The bird of death will take me under its wing
And fly me to a place where things will never be the same
Some day you'll follow me, when light begins to fade
And shadow sweeps over the earth on your own darkest day
So stay with me beside the fire
Before it's too late
We'll let our dreams forever take us higher

Enter the Soil Wellington, New Zealand
Enter the Soil is the solo project of multi-instrumentalist Justin Chorley. Balancing progressive influences from early Opeth through to the delightfully dreary doom metal goodness of bands like Ahab and My Dying Bride, Enter the Soil is brooding and emotional, telling musical tales with a sound grounded in evocative harmonies, punctuated with heavy rhythms and a mixture of growls and soft vocals. ... more
