lyrics

Stifled, silenced, aimless
In a haze of doubt I stumbled
Through my youth, and still I stray
Ambition, gutted by the skeptics
Wounds have left me breathless
My dreams are punctured lungs

Past is prologue
The stage is set to change at any moment
And all of it’s unscripted
But lately I've been cast to play the victim
I think it’s time for some improvisation

So if you feel
Just like I do let's lift the weight of the world
From each other’s shoulders
Each new day, let's be each other’s heroes
In the start, the start of something new

Restless, I began to question
If I ever gave myself a chance to fully comprehend
That in darkness, I could never reflect
On what I truly needed
Or how far I fell from grace

I've spent too much time being angry and resentful
Regretful, a broken empty vessel
And I see it in your eyes
The same agony inside
Let's raise each other up
And let the hate from past lives die

So if you feel
Just like I do let's lift the weight of the world
From each other’s shoulders
Each new day, let's be each other’s heroes
In the start, the start of something new

Sleep at the Edge of the Earth
by Wilderun

supported by 4 fans who also own “Start of Something New”

I never cared about symphonic metal at all. I do very much care about folk as well as progressive metal, and so I couldn't resist after reading the third exceptional AMG review for Wilderun in a row. 'Sleep...' has been on my radar for quite some time, being graced by one of the most beckoning cover arts I have ever seen. The band more than lives up to its reputation, composing great musical pieces from start to finish. I absolutely love the multitude of influences being put together here. David Fischer

When it comes to the "atmosphere" in "atmospheric black metal", this release probably succeeds the most in making me feel like i exist within this universe of music. domfabio
