Eternal Tears of Sorrow

The single is out now in Finland! Here’s the lyrics:

Tears of Autumn Rain

It’s autumn night, the pale moon reveals my emptiness
And my hollow wrath and fear inside
I close my eyes to sense her nightly lust once again
But my rage and thirst won’t fade away

The nightly mist, the scent of autumn in my heart
I can hear the winter’s song again
My will of life falls away like golden leaves
I’m just a flame who dies in shades

Let me feel your pain, tears of autumn rain
Words of blood on the shore: “There is light no more”
Freezing gale of the night silenced the stream of life
Lay us down to sleep on the crimson leaves

(Music: Kylmänen, Lyrics: Puolakanaho & Veteläinen, Arr: Eternal Tears of Sorrow)

…And now we’re waiting it to be mixed and mastered.

The name of the single will be revealed later as well as the names of the songs on it. Let’s just say we haven’t recorded any cover songs this year and probably won’t be recording any of those next year, either.

The album still doesn’t have a name, though, not even a working title. I suppose we need to write more lyrics to fetch the title.

More news coming up in the near future…!

P.S. Take a look at the photos (shot by me), as they show Altti and Jarmo K in action.
