Whatever you see, whatever you hear
tastes of loss, reeks of failure
Wherever you go, back are turned
and voices lowered
Wherever you leave, glances are shared
and heads slowly shaken
You never know when to speak
and yet you think you are the only one who knows
One cannot truly know you
for you are hardly more than the mask you wear
One cannot truly speak to you
for that would be like shouting down a well
We are all the only ones to know
We are all the only ones to know

Behold the wretched creature hunting in the dark
Lurching among the bones of long-dead preys
Empty stares of contempt, skeletal grins of mockery
for an apex predator in a world devoid of game
Its fangs and claws dulled by disuse and time
with all the throats to rip into forever out of reach
Behind those eyes, the age-old pain
We have seen its fright, but never have we felt it
We can speak of its woes, but we cannot comprehend
We can learn of its ways, as we watch from afar
But we know nothing, nothing, of its true horror

Read it in my eyes
Memories stirred, old shames awoken
Unveil the past and witness my descent into
a grave deeper than any dug by mortal hands
Forgotten faults have been revealed,
mistakes have been made
and old grudges rekindled
Yet you will not see
Your gaze right past me
in truth: through me
How can one be so blind
to what ails me all day?
Mock me and taunt me
only do not say you do not know
Find me in
a grave deeper than any dug by mortal hands

I Spit Venom
07:01

Blinded by fear that is not your own
stumbling through paths all too well known
A righteous defense
spewed with a hostile intent
The implication: abomination
Oh you, you should not dare pry
Do not seek, do not try
The conviction is cast
Innocence: past
For every drop spilt, two are fed back
down a throat, so sore
suffocating, disintegrating
Torn - there is truth to the lies
Disgusting, disgusting
bile shines bright for us all
Venom lies in the eyes of the beholder
And I behold
And I spit venom
I spit venom

Für niemanden von Wert

Borne in a womb constricted in apathy
Egested in shame, lived the same
Proved a bane, died in vain
Eulogy void
thrown into disarray
Inconsequence bared
A grave left uncared for
unknown, unheard
Silence, silence preferred
Never forgotten, never known
never rotten, never sown
No spoil, no seed
no soil, no need
Anxious breathing, wrathful seething
frail hands shaking, contemplating:
Für niemanden von Wert
Isolation, self-castration
echo-chamber, echo-chamber:
Für niemanden von Wert

The atmosphere of this album is fantastic. Makes you feel like you're knee-deep in the trenches drenched in mud, filth, sweat, and blood. Truly encapsulates the horrors of World War I, and the fact that the lyrics of some of the songs are taken from old war letters really adds to the authenticity. Favorite Track(s): Die Feuertaufe, Grabenlieder

Gaerea's first release of "Unsettling Whispers" was in 2018, and since, they dared define a "black metal" niche of their own, they dared to walk a new path and stir shit up a bit in the realm of BM, this album is a masterpiece and a milestone proving that it can be done, provided the band can pull it off, and they did, oh they did! Gloomy, dark, post-BM sludgy whatever, it's Gaerea, and this one belongs in my BC collection, the end.
