PKMetal I demand two things of doom metal, and they aren't actually that common. One, it's got to have strong, distinctive vocals that don't cower behind a reverb filter. And two, most importantly, it can't fear cranking up the speed now and then, or even a lot. These guys check both my boxes!

I died just to die again Still cry when I see their tears trapped By the tortuous past Caused by me. I lived the rest of my life Running from the past I lived the rest of my life Trying to do my best But nothing can wash away those tears of suffering Those innocent eyes, crying for mercy I killed. I destroyed. I tortured. And I felt pleasure. Inflicted pain. It was an injustice for living. So long! I died just to die again Still cry when I see their tears trapped By the tortuous past Caused by me. In the shadows they awaited, Spectral beings craving more, Afterlife's enigma confounded, Mystic realms I must explore. Unable to fathom their essence, A puzzle without a key, Time's cruel grasp is relentless, Scant moments left for me. Seeking revenge, they emerged, Spectral phantoms drawn near, Escape eluded, time slipped, No refuge for my fear. Imagine having a beloved child Who caused so much pain? I was massacred Cursed to be reborn again and again Just to die and cause pain. Just to die and cause pain.

The Key 06:20
The key is to seek a balance Between all your egos A symphony of selves in a harmonious blend Serenity, where shadows descend If you don't have the courage. You won't break through If you don't face the dark You will never see the clue That will lead you to the light. You are lost and alone in this cage. So profound is this cage. There's no Devil If there's no God at all. There's no Devil If there's no God at all. It is inside (of you) The sacred chamber where dreams come true There's no Devil If there's no God Why do I say lies? Why do I say so many lies? If my words hurt you. You're not prepared for what lies ahead. Do you want some more? Hypocrisy as before. Why do you say those things? Nothing can hurt you To the point... ...of seeking your end. You're pouring water in plastic flowers A futile act in these hollow hours So don't pursue ignorance. There's no Devil If there's no God at all. There's no Devil If there's no God at all. Seek the balance Feel within, the holy embrace Get the key Free yourself from the shackles of life.

I'm living alone eternally. The future is blind uncertainty. I look in the mirror. I don't see myself. What's behind my eyes is the devil itself. Intertwined in my bones. Moving slowly. There are no more stones. In my way. It is unknown where the fire came from. It is unknown. You don't see me Falling to my knees. Tamed by this force. You don't see me Falling to my knees. When the black horse comes. No use running away like a mouse. I need to face my problems head-on. Impossible to sleep with a head full of guilt. Probably the hat man will show up. I am the devil of myself. I am the cause of my affliction. Can't get away from my true self. So I accept my doom. I can't go back to the way things were. Now my heart seems to explode. I can't go back to before I met you. Now the emptiness is my doom. Lost in a murky swamp, I found my way In a realm of darkness, where shadows held sway. My heart was heavy, as I wandered through the mire But in the depths, a sunflower did transpire. A symbol of hope, with petals of gold In the darkest hour, a joy to behold.

You can watch yourself. You can see yourself in the mirror. You can see what no one else can see. The pain built you. So, learn how to love it. Learn how to live with it forevermore. Forevermore. Forevermore. You are alone. In this unjust war. No one will fight for you. So learn to stand by yourself. I am old now. I see my gray hair and think. I'm already on the brink of life. See your true self. You can think it's ugly. No matter what, you can love what you've become. What you've become. The devil in the mirror. What you've become. The devil in the mirror. There's a thin line. Between what's good and what's evil. There's a thin line. Don't fall at my side. Hastening your death I'm by your side. Rowing the boat on the river of the dead. Now you're mine. Finally, you're mine. Finally, you're mine. What you've become. You're the devil in the mirror. What you've become. You're the devil in the mirror What you've become. You're the devil in the mirror. So praise yourself from within.

I will wait to see you tonight Floating with white sheets tonight Blessed by the rain years ago, The bells ring out when you disappear Your face, a memory from the past, Each line, a melody that won't last, You're the same, but also not, The life in you, that's what I sought. My love for you, for days of old, A fire that's dim, but not yet cold, In raindrops, I see you sway, A ghostly show, memories replay, But now you're just a fading shade, The present you, it starts to fade. The night goes on, I wait for you, Not for now, but for what we knew, In a fleeting moment, love was our theme, Now, I search for what Was just a dream.

At Dawn 04:41
I can stay At your house One more day I guess I can stay On your final day A rainy day Entombed alive We don't have much time To save you from The ones that promised to love you. At Dawn All life will be gone At Dawn Will remain only the drawings Of our past lives Entombed alive We don't have much time I can't stay anymore I can't spend my precious time with you 'Cause I can't suffer anymore I don't stand to suffer anymore At Dawn All life will be gone At Dawn Will remain only the drawings Of our past lives At Dawn All life will be gone At Dawn Will remain only the drawings Of our past lives I can't stay Anymore I can't stay

I wanted to love But I was prevented by this disease that plagues me. I wanted to live But I was prevented by the people who avoid me. Nobody let me in. So I had to find my way. Nobody wanted my presence. So I had to find my way. The red death is knocking on your door. My dominion will leave you on the floor. Darkness and decay entered your home. And the red death will leave with your soul. I wanted to prosper But I don't have much time. I wanted to give my son the best of me. I wanted to love But I was prevented by this disease that plagues me. But nobody let me in. So I had to find my way. Nobody wanted my presence. So I had to find my way. The red death is knocking on your door. My dominion will leave you on the floor. Darkness and decay entered your home. And the red death will leave with your soul. Leave you without a soul. Leave with your soul. Leave you without a soul Leave with your soul. The red death is knocking on your door. It is nothing like what came before. Darkness and decay entered your home. And the red death will leave with your soul.

At Dusk 04:45
In the realm of shadows Where false love resides Your affection for me A deceit that hides For we're akin Our souls entwined The same music echoes Shared tears combined In the harmonies, we revel Frequencies aligned A mimicry of love A masquerade confined We weep with identical verses And share the poet's pen Yet beneath the facade The truth descends again In the tapestry of sameness Suffering we share Your self-hate A clandestine affair How could you love me, at dusk? How could you love me? In this mirrored reflection When your heart's affliction is Self-directed dejection We emerged from the Same spirit's inception Echoes of shared pasts An astral connection Reincarnations entwined A celestial dance Together, we perished In passion's last chance So, fake love entwines Our souls in this sorrow waltz A mirror reflecting Self-loathing assaults In the same flame Our spirits met their fate Yet love's counterfeit A cruel twist in destiny's gait Yet beneath the facade The truth descends again In the tapestry of sameness Suffering we share Your self-hate A clandestine affair How could you love me, at dusk? How could you love me, at dusk? How could you love me, at dusk? How could you love me?

I'm used to living in darkness. Outside, people don't see me as equal. I'm tired of struggling to find my place. So far, I have only found disgrace. I'm back to the Earth's womb. I'm back to the Earth's womb. No one seems to care for us. Back to the Earth's womb. My roots are not well seen. 'Cause, we lost the war... And everywhere we've been as slaves In my birthplace. As slaves. Own birthplace burned Forever marking my mother's suffering face I'm back to the Earth's womb I'm back to the Earth's womb. No one seems to care for us. Back to the... I'm back... Back to the Earth's womb I'm back to the Earth's womb. No one seems to care for us. Back to the...
