Vernal Awakening

Dark Tranquility

Enthroned through this age of confusion an urge,

the weakness and flooy since aeons emerged,

Created life in fetters from cradle to grave

A future in darkness with mankind enslaved



Trail of life decayed - wasteland whall prevail

"Progression in spirit eliminates all bounds"



Sunlight fades as nightfall rises in shadows formed in clay

What once dwelt shall dwell no more when darkness sees the day

A bleakwinter of enmity and terror shall take form

What man created will be ruined when hate conjures the storm



Hallow minds start to burn with the flaming shades of fall

let disorder arise!

Tumbelling, falling, brings conclusions -

constant fatal life-corrosion



Autumn - beckons forth the

winter - rising gloom in hand

Raging with bleak coldness 'til

vernal light commands



Final chapter closed - world devoid of use

Failure brings despair - death reveals its lair



Sunlight fades as nightfall rises in shadows formed in clay

What once dwelt shall dwell no more when darkness sees the day

A bleakwinter of enmity and terror shall take form
