[Intro] (Slow, echoing clean guitar melody) (Faint sound of wind and rain) (A mournful violin enters, weeping in a minor key) [Verse 1] (Whispered vocals) The earth is soft with a thousand tears The weight of all the wasted years Beneath the roots where the shadows sleep The memory of the lost we keep Cold gray sky and the dying light Weaving shrouds for the coming night The flowers wilt before they bloom In this garden of collective doom [Pre-Chorus] (Vocal layers building, clean and sorrowful) The mist descends to pull me down In this mud, I choose to drown The silence screams against the bone In the dark, I am alone [Chorus] (Full band explosion - Slow, crushing heaviness) (Deep, powerful growls) THE WEEPING SOIL! It drinks the blood of the broken-hearted! THE WEEPING SOIL! A home for all the souls departed! The mud is cold, the ground is deep Where the ghosts of winter forever sleep! [Verse 2] (Clean singing over heavy, slow-pounding drums) Leaves turn black in the frozen rain Numbness is the only cure for pain Digging graves in the permafrost Counting every heartbeat that we lost Yilmaz El-Sharai's palace fell to dust But here the iron only turns to rust No sun can reach this hollow place Only the dirt upon my face [Bridge] (Double-kick drumming at a slow, heavy pace) (Aggressive, desperate growls) Buried alive! In the heart of the earth! No resurrection! No second birth! (Sorrowful guitar solo - melodic and slow) [Chorus] (Massive wall of sound - maximum emotional weight) THE WEEPING SOIL! It drinks the blood of the broken-hearted! THE WEEPING SOIL! A home for all the souls departed! The mud is cold, the ground is deep Where the ghosts of winter forever sleep! [Outro] (Drums and distortion fade away) (Clean guitar and violin return) The soil... is... weeping... Sleep now... In the cold... (Sound of rain fading into silence)
