As Death Consumes the Earth Cold, Bitter Suffering Agony in my eyes Yet my feeling is gone Peel off this rotting corpse around me Reveal the emptiness inside of it When time is up When you cease to exist She says 'Cry for mercy like you’ve always done before' There is no forgiveness, there is nothing more Consume this lie around me turn everything back to stone Remove the sickness, purify them in death Death! Cold, Bitter Suffering Agony in my eyes Yet my feeling is gone As death consumes this earth

Drained of Life Broken hours in the twilight In bitterness left of hope Soon the release shall set us free and end eternity Beyond the final hour Life is forever abolished It is now or never No backing out; only the chosen few go on Scars left upon my barren soul I can take it no more Bring forth the suffering And cleanse us in death Gone is the pain As the blood leaves our veins She is forgotten As I shall soon be I can wait no longer Our time is now There is no other way The clouds of my mind suffocate my soul Death is the only answer to my condition The only relief To end it all Now (Outro): Cuando el sol se pone atrás de nuestras vidas Ya no queda nada que decir Cuantas cosas quería escucharte decir Y ya no tengo forma de oír Cuando llega nuestra hora final Juntos iremos a descansar

Breathing Poisoned Air I considered myself the unlucky one Here I still am while she is forever gone Perhaps my death is worse and my prize is misery A chance to linger as an outcast left in a dying world Walk ever further but no hope is ever found My body agonizes as my mind crumbles Will this end? Or is it still my task to do so? Is it any different from before? People struggling to survive, finding a means to exist. The futility of it all Seems comical now, if even a sliver Can exist in this The greatest of all tragedies It changes you as soon as you realize it. Breathing the poisoned air of this world Withering away from the inside, gradually, sinking further into oblivion My charade continues on. Forget logic, forget the truth. Cower from it, and hide behind your lies. It makes no difference now, of all times. Death is not just, it didn't choose her. This barren horizon around me tells me so; As my inexistent soul, My hollow body moves on. Down the road, around the next corner, further into oblivion, As always Nothing changed. I just opened my eyes for the first time

Forgotten Plague Alter all traces of her life have disappeared forever Nobody left alive, no one to remember This forgotten barren wasteland Forgotten plague upon it Failed, forever doomed into emptiness never to return again Hope is a false illusion Nothing can save us from our fate Damned, consumed by misery eternally never to awake again If this life is so useless, Soon to be abolished Why, do I still exist? A mistake, a plague, an accident Death is the only constant It was our only escape, yet the same…

A Grey Wasteland Among the desolate remains I walk forsaken through pools of acid rain. Torment awaits me in my final hour. Sulphuric clouds gaze down on my dismay. I cannot go on any longer. Surrender is not an option when my enemy is the very land I walk on. Dry blood drenched with tears of despair, Echoes of my own screams return to me through the frozen air Every time I close my eyes I wish I could never open them again I wish I could die and bring this misery to an end. Too weak to think, too spent to act As I await my death… The final breath is one of infinite depth. The grey wasteland around me mocks my solemn corpse, Writhing in pain and consternation forever with no way out. As I await the rot, to perish. I cannot go on any longer. Dry blood drenched with tears of despair, Echoes of my own screams return to me through the frozen air Every time I close my eyes I wish I could never open them again I wish I could die and bring this misery to an end.

Into the Void Try one step further into a vast horizon With nothing to be seen but ashen shadows in decay I hear the whispers of my soul dwindling They implore me to renounce my path To become as a stone among the scorched monument As the tide brings nothing but empty failure Broken and hopeless, I can feel the warmth leaving me I cry not for all that's lost but for all that remains I can't see anything else beyond the void in front of me It drains me every minute of every hour Transparent and useless I can't even fathom Anything at all beyond the veil It's all forgotten. There's nothing left to remember With the great death upon my throat pressing ever increasingly Suffocating on my own misery. Push harder until you hear the crackle fade and stifle it all forever This time it will end. No more awakening. No more grey skies above. No more stench of rot. Here I will stay to become the earth, the very death around me that poisoned me so Fading into nothingness I will not remember.

about

Second album by CemeteriuM. Released on Friday, June 13th, 2014. All recordings, composition and artwork by Belegurth. This is an independent release.

This is a concept album, each song an episode of a tragic story involving terminal disease, suicide, loss, nihilism and a person's fall into hopelessness. See the descriptions of each song for the full story.

"Cemeterium move between storming black metal assaults, hammering riffs of doom, and slower passages of funereal mourning and ghostly ambience, making effective use of sweeping keyboard overlays to heighten the music’s dismal, dramatic power.
This is depressive atmospheric black metal, with roots in doom metal, that’s well-conceived and well-executed, achieving a fine balance between the bleakly beautiful and the blasted. Worth your time — if you’re ready to be pulled down into quicksands (and whirlpools) of misery."
