Spirit in The Glass (2025) Dark Chapel 🇺🇸 USA

Stranded in mind
With broken mirror eyes
Shattered reflections of a life
Labyrinth of time
Its distant echo chimes
It leaves no depth unoccupied

Veins half empty
Pale blue lines
Pierce an entry
Through a hollow smile

Prism of thought
Suspended in barbed wire
Hold lacerations to desire
Bleeding before
A cut that may occur
Disembodied with no cure

Veins half empty
Pale blues lines
Pierce an entry
Through a hollow smile

Head trip
So far from view
The depths of designer sight

Hollow Smile

Desert lightning paints the sky
Trailing wakes of winged spirits in flight

And without warning
The sun sheds its rays
And without warning
We are remade

Empyrean arms reach through eventide
A daunting embrace with longing eyes

And without warning
In sunless rays
And without warning
We are remade

Angels of obscurity
Burning fields of mystery
Angels of obscurity
Shadows of Reality

We are remade

Corpse flower
My rose of death
April showers
Drown all the rest

Acrid halo
Sepulchered in
Ashes of thorns and sin
Mourning angel
Bereft of light
Dusted with diamond blight
Corpse Flower

Grave keeper
Enchanting dread
Bloodline seeker
Soul fountain head

Acrid halo
Sepulchered in
Ashes of thorns and sin
Mourning angel
Bereft of light
Dusted with diamond blight
Corpse Flower

My all to you
Altar of truth

Corpse Flower
My all to you

Color’s fading from a still, heavy sky
The blue remaining has little time
And as the sun sets on this house again
Familiar absence fills the air

Empty light far and wide

In your glass heart, with shattered lines, so confined
In your glass heart, with shattered lines, stained with time

Future’s silent and the past still echoes
Like a crystal canyon through the night
And as the wind breathes in its heavy sighs
The crescent moon holds its stare

Empty light far and wide

In your glass heart, with shattered lines, so confined
In your glass heart, with shattered lines, stained with time

In a glass heart
In a glass heart

In your glass heart
In your glass heart
In your glass heart
In your glass heart

In a glass heart

In your glass heart, with shattered lines, so confined
In your glass heart, with shattered lines, stained with time
In your glass heart, with shattered lines, so confined
In your glass heart, with shattered lines, stained with time
Shattered lines, lost its shine
Shattered lines, so confined

The weight of this heartache that I carry
Will see me to my grave
The bridge to tomorrow burns away
Time ain’t no healer, I’ll be real with you
Old scars never fade

Though I’ve tried
Unburden myself of this fate
I fear that it’s far too late

Now I’m dead weight
And I’d hate to, I’d hate to burden you
With my embrace
And restrain you from all that awaits
Carrying my dead weight
Beside you

The path to a yesterday is so overgrown now
Buried in dead leaves and stone now
So far from home now

Though I’ve tried
Unburden myself of this fate
I fear that it’s far too late

Now I’m dead weight
And I’d hate to, I’d hate to burden you
With my embrace
And restrain you from all that awaits
Carrying my dead weight
Beside you

An air so heavy has come to take me
And guide me away
Far from this fleeting truth so deceiving
You’ve gone to stay
You’ve gone to stay
You’ve gone to stay
You’ve gone to stay
You’ve gone to stay

Tides of the ocean
Drag my mind through heavy waters
Waves of nostalgia
Crash down on my heavy stone heart

And the light begins to falter
As I fade into
Into dark waters
All I feel is you
All I see is you

Caught in the wake
of your sorrow and my despair
Days fall like grains of sand
through weathered hands

Now the black becomes my shelter
As I fade into
Into dark waters
All I feel is you
All I see is you

I’ve lived tomorrow so many times before
And i’ll see you again, i’ll see you again my friend
This world of trouble that we’ve been swimming in
Now we’re frozen in

Sand in the glass has turned again
Waiting for daylight’s only friend
The small hours fall in slow decent
Fading in to the firmament

I wish that we could talk for a while
Hear your words through your troubled smile
Longing for change, a soul in chains
Your melody is all that remains

Spirit in the glass greets me again
Bringing eventide its final end
The small hours to return again
Still company in slow decent

I wish that we could talk for a while
Hear your words through your troubled smile
Longing for change, a soul in chains
Your melody is all that remains

Lay the headstones down upon the hillside
For this wicked ground’s in season now to reside

Gravestoned Humanity

Beasts of malady flew in on wings of hellfire
Streets of iniquity, cabals torment and inspire

Gravestoned Humanity
Destruction mainlined

Lay the headstones down upon the hillside
For this wicked ground’s in season now to reside
Through a looking glass of absolute enmity
Fury and contempt decimate Amity

Gravestoned Humanity

You were my fixed stare
You were the only air I breathed
You were my only love
You were the only words with meaning
You were the bullet in our chamber

You were my sunlight healer
For my disease
You were my slow burn dealer
Could never leave

You were my fixed stare
You were the only air I breathed
You were my only love
You were the only time I needed
You were the bullet in our chamber

You were my gold in motion
My falling leaves
You were my blood moon mountain
Drip to the sea
You were the chosen healer
For my disease
Remedy dealer
Could never leave

You were my fixed stare
You were the only air I breathed
You were my only love
You were the only time I needed
You were the bullet in our chamber
