Harshest Winter

from Vultures by Wrapped in a Sheet

/

lyrics

Barely human
Half-martyred and starving
The year was bleeding its last hour as I came
Trailing shadows

A mess of flesh and dementia
I uttered wordless screams which were lost to the arctic freeze
Seeking heat

My mind was blank
But the hunger for something more than carrion atained my rank body red
Anger swelled

I quit the forest
Forsaking the territory I had haunted since warmth had abandoned me
Now, centuries ago

Then I saw fire

Helios, Prometheus, scorch the earth
Char my heart
Helios, Prometheus, incinerate this
Harshest Winter

Barely human
Invoking the wendigo
An ovation of branches tore at my skin
To keep me there

All-encompassed by pillars of winter
Held by the forest
Which drank every memory out of me

Helios, Prometheus, scorch the earth
Char my heart
Helios, Prometheus, Adranus
Thaw my blood
Helios, Prometheus, Belanus
Rain down fire
Helios, Hephæstos, incinerate this
Harshest Winter

Barely human
Half-martyred and starving
The year was bleeding its last hour as I came
Trailing shadows

A mess of flesh and dementia
I uttered wordless screams which were lost to the arctic freeze
But found her

Quis est iste qui venit

Eius est
Amor est
Calor est
Mors est
