about

Second single from upcoming debut album "Astral Tears" by Starlit Melancholy. Featuring Ethereal melodies and sorrow filled atmospheric black metal riffs.

lyrics

Oh stars above
Whilst thou warm my aching bones
Cast aside the shadows of ghostly sting
Asphyxiating from supernatural cling

Snowfall unto aging arbor
The evergreen frosted by your gift
A benevolence of resonation
My soul will rest at their feet

Radiant sorrow
Luminescent emptiness
Wrought by the blade of misery

Drippings of hollow death
Stained the canvas red
Crimson pleas fell silent
Beneath the shell of illusion

Oh stars above
Whilst though dim and fade
The frigid void calls my name

The yearning for frozen bliss
Inescapable tomb
Crystals piercing
Encasing my wounds

Oh stars above
Relinquish your might to the cosmic abyss
For I rest in an infinite well
Where light cannot reach

I reject thine rays
Your deceit of a prosperous venture
The fetid earthen soil
Is the only home I trust
I banish thee
putrid mockery

Footsteps trodden
On nostalgic whim
The frozen winds
Conceal memories of a soul once lost

Fleeting
And dreaming
In the darkness
Where even the Celestial giants can't breathe

In the forest grove
Shadows enclosed
Free of the vile starry eyes
Glaring menacingly

Oh how their gaze seizes me

Radiant sorrow
Luminescent emptiness
Wrought by the blade of misery

Drippings of hollow death
Stained the canvas red
Crimson pleas fell silent
Beneath the shell of illusion
