heikyoku, Japanese heavy metal, Female vocals, Hōgaku, angry, rising tension, poetic

(Haiku)
Fingers press like stone,
airless void consumes the light—
the earth swallows all.

(Verse 1)
With my hand upon your brow,
I unmake your world, sky, and ground.
No glimpses to warn you, no light will guide,
Only a void, nothing but darkness behind your eyes.
I need not strike with sword or spear,
I seal away also the world you hear.
No whispers left, no footsteps near,
You are alone with only your fear.

(Pre-Chorus)
Each element has a story, each story a path,
Each path a lesson but each lesson ignored invites the world’s wrath.
When earth forgets you, when air turns away,
What will you have left to say?

(Chorus)
Beneath my hand, your senses drown,
In a tomb within yourself, you are now bound.
No sight, no sound, no air to taste—
The world you knew is now erased.

(Haiku)
One touch steals the world,
stone silence, dark void, cold breath—
the earth takes senses.

(Verse 2)
You live by sight, by sound, your own domain—
But my world holds nothing so plain.
The music in the stones, the breath of trees—
This is how I know what you see.
The air will never lie to me,
The rain blankets both the proud and meek,
The earth remembers each move you make.
The wood warns with each twig you break.

(Chorus)
Beneath my hand, your senses drown,
In a tomb within yourself, you are now bound.
No sight, no sound, no air to taste—
The world you knew is now erased.

(Bridge)
No sight, no sound, no scent remains,
A soul unmoored, only your own thoughts your world contains.
The elements remember what flesh forgets—
This void need not be unkind, if you can listen to the world’s breath.
But to you this is the silence and darkness of forgotten stone,
Each sense surrendered to the earth below.
Through trembling flesh and fading cries,
The world dissolves and the spirit dies.

(Haiku - Reflection)
No eyes, no ears left—
only breath within the dark,
still earth holds you fast.

(Final Chorus)
Beneath my hand, your senses drown,
In a tomb within yourself, you are now bound.
No sight, no sound, no air to taste—
The world you knew is now erased.

(Haiku)
Blind earth swallows breath,
fingers claw at memory—
nothing left but stone.

(Outro)
The air warns with a brush that brings shivers,
The earth’s groans send tremors,
The fire’s heat contrasts its absence,
The wood pulses with life’s presence,
The water ripples even as the tides move-
But the world has nothing to say to you.

(Intro) Air warns with a brush that brings shivers, Earth’s groans send tremors, Fire’s heat contrasts its absence, Wood pulses with life’s presence, Water ripples even as the tides move- But perhaps the languages of the elements are mysterious to you. I live in the world of the Five Dragons, they share with me much. You live in a small world confined by the idols of sight, hearing, smell, taste, and touch. (Haiku) Fingers press like stone, airless void consumes the light— the earth swallows all. (Verse 1) With my hand upon your brow, I unmake your world, sky, and ground. No glimpses to warn you, no light will guide, Only a void, nothing but darkness behind your eyes. I need not strike with sword or spear, I seal away also the world you hear. No whispers left, no footsteps near, You are alone with only your fear. (Pre-Chorus) Each element has a story, each story a path, Each path a lesson but each lesson ignored invites the world’s wrath.
