about
Empty Church continues developing the philosophy of the Blind Shadows album. This song is about the men who are so tied to the material world, that they stop caring about the spirit. Even after death they continue their worldly deeds.
lyrics
I
empty church
is standing alone
among the trees
rusty bells
have been keeping silence
for many years
II
broken walls
are not covering
parishioners
burnt icons
are no more singing
the names of saints
III
once here a stranger came
with a blind despair
to find shelter from the storm
he saw obscure shadows inside
they continued to serve
the occult mass after death
he turned around
but couldn't leave
there was no way out
____________
empty church
-the unbeliever
empty church
-the house of daemons
empty church
-eternal prison for fallen souls
Finnish death metallers leaven infernal dynamics with triumphant, infectious melodies, striking a compelling balance between grit and grace. Bandcamp New & Notable Oct 25, 2023
