The Bastard Wind Lyrics by Bell Witch, Aerial Ruin

Stygian Bough, Vol. I

2020

Second waiting, the bastard wind
Left you swaying but held again
So allaying, you'll call to the veil
Where bled you fail
Found you longing for steel and field and cave
But still shackled by rows of endless waves
Will an essence you drown now cast you away
To sand and clay
So a shimmer of wave will strain to the sun
While deceiving the eye that's lost and won
Where a lesson to burn is fast to decay
In swell and spray
So as endless a dream it seems is lost out of shade
There in shoreless of hold you long to fade
For the cleansing of waves are naught to avail
Where bled you fail
Where bled you fail
Where bled you fail
The lie
Means nothing to the sky
Or veil
The way
Will burn another day
Or fail
This time
In passage you divine
This grail
And climb
From waves in endless line
That pale
The granite lay sunken
As below
The wind that wrought the fire
So below
Soaring ascent in flame
Cinders of victims singed and maimed
Strip the wind to bleed again
Fall below oceanic flame
Naught the strain
That death has claimed
You leave the kill to pain
Deeds that bled away
Where in fairness war's ascension is to stay
There in violence you're mastering decay
You'll feed the beast this way
Where an effigy will climb towards the sun
There a peak on high will witness what is done
Air to thin and turn before the flames are gone
Carelessly you're burning all there is to one
Share the burden left in cinders by the ton
If nothing's to be done
If nothing's to be done
If nothing's to be done
If nothing's to be won
Strain the shadow and steep in shade
Earth left fallow for steeper grade
Climb once narrow is now the blade
That severs the wind
Calm but quaking on the shroud of the sun
As it's forsaken and below it's flung
The storm is raging for the past has won
And led by the wings
You're led by the wings
Need led the lie
To deny endless sky
Deeds led below
As above
For the foe
