lyrics

My monolith shares its secrets with the wind.
It's whispered peak; stretching up towards the sky.

And so I'm ready to break free from this.
So please don't judge me and I hope you understand
That I'm, I'm tired of this world.
So just release me and unshackle me from this pain.

Feel the weight of this Earth.
This spider has spun it's final web inside my head.

I am I, and you are you,
the burden in my head.
Days decay and rot away,
no reasons for this life.

This life.

My past, my name, my scars, to keep.
My body, yearns for one last sleep.
The wind, the rain, the river, embrace.
My mind, my soul, my life, erase.

All the bridges we never crossed,
all the potential and time we lost.
All the chances we'd like to relive,
all the hurt we refused to forgive.
All the wrongs and all the sins,
thinking about what might have been.
All the secrets we want to forget,
the hardest sorrows are those of regret.

The heartbreaks that came from doubt,
the love that our pride cast out.
A lot of things you said were right,
I just wish we had the foresight.
And some things were left unsaid,
sometimes we felt misled.
I don't want to leave your side,
but it's time to say goodbye.

Abigail Williams has had a weird career with hiatuses and lineup changes, but they have finally perfected their sound on Walk Beyond the Dark. This album has such a refreshing and natural feeling that makes it one of the top atmospheric black metal albums of recent years. Ryan

The Funeral Pyre
by KVAEN

supported by 7 fans who also own “Monolith”

The first 30 seconds of "Revenge by Fire" convinced me to get the whole album! It is a face-melting blend of speed and black metal, reminiscent of Hellripper! KVAEN is a Swedish solo project much like Hellripper but many known guest musicians helped J. Björnfot in his endeavor. Altogether it is really a solid debut album, I loved the melodies and the pace changes in the second half too, ending with a "calm" instrumental one. Well-done!! sachavonkarl74
