If Emotions Still Burn
Dead birds fall from the sky
Just like the rain an October night
The sun has stopped shining
Never again to spread its light
If emotions still burn
They'll soon be brought to ashes
Just like a withering flower
They'll slowly fade away
The place you've name
d paradise
Was burnt to ashes ages ago
An eternal landscape of ashes and dust
The end is here, face it and enjoy it
The Rain that Falls...
Alone I wonder in this misty forest
In this my (own) world of darkness
There are no lights that show me the way
The screams from my past surround me
The rain that falls tastes like blood
The blood that falls enchantes my soul
The chickets around me burn like fires
The fires around me enchantes my soul
Fear ain't a part of me, my feelings are no longer mine
Here in this my kingdom
Where the trees are my people
and the rivers my servants
The rain that falls tastes like blood
The blood that falls enchantes my soul
The chickets around me burn like fires
The fires around me enchantes my soul
Is this a dream or is this me?
Rise Above the Storming Sea
Shining bright but yet so dark
Full of love but yet so spiteful
Devoted to the mightiest of all powers
I whisper thy name in my dream
Rise above the storming sea
Come forth and unite with me
My goddess of lust and desire
Come forth and release your fire
Mesmerized by your beauty
I gaze into your eyes
Dreaming away, far away
Into another sphere
Denial (The Way of the Strong)
This is the way of my living
This is the choice of my life
Will I be weak and obey you?
No, I'll stand strong and be me
I deny - your god
And all that - he stands for
I can't - understand
How someone - can follow your pathetic lies
I spit on you and I spit on your god
I have chosen my way to live
You say that I shall love
I say that I shall hate
If Jesus made wine out of water
Then I'll make wolves out of sheep
The Battle
As the sky turns black
My hunger sets in
My hunger for killing and slaying
I raise my fist against the northern sky
As I scream in anguish and in pain
The blood from your veins caress my skin
As my battle against mankind goes on
I will keep on killing
Until mankind forever is gone
When the night fades away
I return to my deep cold cave
Longing for the next night to arrive
The arrival of the black northern sky
The arrival of the battle-divine
For hundreds of years I've struggled
Never to surrender, never to die
I'm immortal. I'm the battle-divine
I've travelled through ages to find you
And finally you're mine
You'll die for me, the battle-divine
Betrayer - you'll die by my fire
My fire - the everlasting pain
My Last Journey
Without noticing the pouring rain
I sliced my wrist with my knife
I couldn't ignore the endless pain
The last thing in my dreary life
"Dark clouds filled the open sky
My heart was filled with hate
I bent down on my knees and cried
Is this really my fate?"
"I'll never again see the sun rise
Cause now I'm in my eternal bed
Death is so sweet and nice
And I enjoy being dead"
On this, my last journey
As I Face The Eternity
As I fell asleep I could hear your scream
As I fell deeper into your my dream - you died
Did I not bleed for you?
Did I not suffer?
Did I not cry for you, my dear?
You took your life, my dear
You entered hell, my love
I want to be with you
Not even death can stop me
I enter the gate of the realm of death
As I face the eternity
I feel the emptiness and desperation
"In the darkest place of this Earth
Where the wild wolves are howling"
I seem to be one with the winds
As I soar through the air
I took my life, my dear
I entered hell, my love
As I fell asleep you could hear me scream
As you fell deeper into your dream - I died
Forever - resting in hell
My Revenge to Come
On my black horse I ride
Towards the end of time
By the christians you were sentenced and died
Burned at the stake to redeem your crime
As the autumn leaf in the purling rill
My people followed their lie
But for you sake my queen
I'll scournfully watch them die
My utter denial of their god
Makes me divine
Their death will be
The ultimate revenge of mine

Альбом, кстати легко превосходит такие команды, как Dark Tranquillity и In Flames.
Такое впечатление создаётся, что группа Ablaze My Sorrow задалась целью превзойти такие команды, как Dark Tranquillity и In Flames по части мелодичности и запоминаемости композиций в рамках такого вполне ортодоксального стиля как дэт-металл. Но в погоне за неординарностью мелодий группа слишком далеко оторвалась от той самой запоминаемости, которая помогла подняться двум вышеуказанным коллективам. Непосредственно в момент прослушивания альбома так и хочется потрясти несуществующим (увы!) хаером под весёлые и бодрящие напевы музыкантов, но вот по окончании пластинки как ни напрягай мозги, а ни одну песню так и не вспомнишь... Именно этот факт не позволяет поставить альбому высшую оценку. Хотя по качеству записи и по заложенным идеям альбом объективно является первоклассным образцом гётеборгской школы скандинавского дэт-металла и побуждает не задвигать диск в долгий ящик (что уже несомненный плюс). Конечно, до грандов жанра (ДТ и ИФ) не дотягивает, но на слух мне очень даже вкатил.
