Antichrisis - Proem lyrics

And as I walked through the garden of love. I pa**ed the gates of paradise and the gates of perdition. Maybe the saddest experience of all is that even the most wonderful and precious moments don't last forever and appear like a dream that faded much too soon when looking back. But both darkness and light are given to us to make us prospect and grow: like every living being needs the interplay of daylight's sweet kiss and night's gentle embrace. And as darkness falls while I'm drifting away on the river of sadness, the remembrance of love's golden sunlight is my only supply of logs for the cold and lonely winter of the soul. This album is a tribute to a love that was so beautiful as long as it lasted and so bitter when it ended: hence both love's heavenly bliss as well as bereavement's abysmal despair are to be found amongst these 10 songs; songs that are like sears to me now... But still the dream remains, and yet my love has not withered nor have my songs faded away: Though Moonshadow died in the devastation of declining Planet Kyrah. Sid survived - but for how much longer? Goodnight - and may the Goddess bless you all! SID "When I'm dead, my Dearest, sing no sad songs for me, plant thou no roses at my head, nor shady cypress tree: Be the green gra** above me with showers and dewdrops wet; and if thou wilt, remember, and if thou wilt, forget." [Christina Rosetti (1830-1894)]
