lyrics

Silence calms the violent storm but only for the dead
Cannot restrain the brooding ghosts from seething in my head
The calloused heart receives the woes yet grieves for souls no more
Foreseeing the fleeting faith of men dried up on the shore
Behold a glimmer of the light that flees swiftly amidst
this furnace of affliction precursing the abyss
Of conquered wreathes and casted stones that build the walls of hate
Dichotomize the conscience man that dreads a sealed fate

The ravens quench the fire and whisper dark desires
They feed on the incision provoking their illusions
The hand in the quiver the serpent he slithers
on into the garden tainted by compromise
Of crimson and shadows betrayal and scarlet
Of wormwood's destruction - the curse that breeds corruption

I sacrificed my soul on the altar of despair

A tale of tainted love and grieving of The Dove
The arrows pierced through me yet grace has pursued me

While cowering in shadows a presence descends into the darkness
The tomb on which I laid my head becomes a pillar to Heaven's gate
Unleashing wrath upon the scorn that withered my tortured soul
The ghostly howls of Hades shall be my dread no more

Sola Gratia, Sola Fide, Solus Christus, Soli Deo Gloria

In Memoriam
by Crowned in Sorrow

supported by 12 fans who also own “Conquered”

Out of the wreckage brought upon by dual personal tragedies comes an outstanding album that is sorrowful and victorious. Once you listen to this a few times, it’s hard to want to listen to anything else for a while. This is my front runner for metal album of 2021, and perhaps even my overall AOTY. Metal Marc

As soon as Creation Weeps kicks in you know your in for a death metal slamming time. This EP is immersed in darkness and it will suffocate the light out of you. Darknight
