Before you go Give the stars a name The look on your face Did I dream again? I recall a time Was it January or July? Relinquished our love The grand offering Seven auras Deadly cosmos Speak to me In ways I've forgotten How perilous Your parting of seas What I'd give To have another warm night Turn around And ask me to dim the light Your life It seems so simple Yet we don't know what to do So far away now All nights belong to you So far away now All nights belong to you Rapture Last summer Remembering Deep within me Bring on the dawn (Bring on the dawn) Bring forth your flame (Bring forth your flame) And orchestrate the lashing (Orchestrate the lashing) In sequence of gloom After the drought I wrote a poem Upon the moon Do you sleep alone? Do you Do you Do you sleep alone?

In acclamation With fervent tongues You colonized me Through the arcane Through the debris Take down the photographs Listen The striking of the bell Listen The hissing of the snake Restless The earth pounds and shakes Restless The rivers of blood The choir wails We've come a long way A leaving song We didn't know then We didn't know then These secrets you keep Languid winter break And when you speak Charmed with the scripture Given to me Unveil future paths Loosen your hair And lay down your sword Cut Cut Cut Cut the midnight hue Adorn The mantlepiece Cloak The visage of self Return To a former time And lo And hark The birds head South and onward Soaring acquisition And lo And hark The birds head South and onward Soaring acquisition

Empyrean 06:11
Of a place Of a time All roads lead To your eyes I was caught in a spell The seamlessness of your magic Draped your head with flowers At the onset of dusk Nothing will be the same The year comes around again Empyrean Empyrean You run the water towel-less And governed all constellations Fluid gestures, weak knees Begin the communion I was entranced on sight The endlessness of your vessel Ascend to higher planes I am going home Of a place Of a time All roads lead To you eyes And night falls An ode to the lowly When I meditate Such silence ignites the void When we oscillate In worship of decline Empyrean Empyrean Empyrean

The Garden 11:28
The taste of song The skin of sea The pale of bones The shape beneath The taste of song The skin of sea The pale of bones The shape beneath A photo of a river A song about the waves A woman spins inside her skirt On the floor of an abandoned stage A note inside a pocket I remember what it said Words that read like stains Oh, what is it that you meant? The taste of song The skin of sea The pale of bones The weight of me The taste of song The skin of sea The pale of bones The weight of me To discord To war And the heart, it rages on To land To sea Take me with you The taste of song The skin of sea The pale of bones The shape beneath And you tread The earth and firmament No longer ours Language and working limbs There in the night Exalted, ruthless queen Old summer dirge Sing beneath the canopy Array of green So lush, do you concede? I was never yours Do you concede? Do you concede? Devoted to your darker work My blood leapt from the strangest place The shrillest of four arias Words rendered false in the garden Sorrow tipped its hat and fled You speak my name and no one wept Mystique woven in the moon's cleft I bow my head and bid farewell In streams of relief I cup my hands An ocean overcome Won't be the last And it won't It won't be the last And it won't It won't be the last To discord To war And the heart, it rages on To land To sea Take me with you To transcend To shore Usurp with golden thread To hail To return And unravel yet another myth

about

Constellatia’s ‘The Language of Limbs’ delivers aching, dramatic South African post-black metal with a flair for the romantic and nostalgic. Cascading riffs and powerful blast beats intertwine with calming, ethereal breaks, offering moments of introspective pause inside the void of gloomy noise. The varied textures capture a spectrum of emotion. The album is certain to entrance the listener with its ugly beauty.
