Nethtra After the Flames

Black Metal from Australia. From the 2012 release Slipping Away the Symphonic and atmospheric. Facebook: lyrics: Fingers pulling from the dirt, white roots and grey invertebrates. Cold, most soil clings to skin. One day the soil might sink in and stain royal digits black as soot after fires rape the forest. Evergreens will fall but nature takes pride in it all. The night sky, broken eyed stars cry rain and light on leaves and branches that twist and smile sharp teeth, devour all light within their reach. All light begins to fade. I can t see beyond the shade. Moon come, I beg to see you soon, or I ll sleep this nocturnal womb. Set this ablaze with fires from your tongue and don t lie down till all you ll do is done. Sit amidst the ashes of a life and wonder where it went, then wander under stars till you reach the broken wall.
