1.	The Semblance of Eternal Mist 05:56	lyrics	buy track
Open your eyes in the white december Do you feel this little warmer? Our own heart is melting at the same time There is no guest here.still But something is still trying to excite To infuse to our lifeless bodies the semblance Of life, another day will bring me the truth This became scared, then became silly Sleep, sweety It`s so boring because of their own stare Even heaven`s creatures suspect the doom is near There are a million answers and no one right below Between us, where the arrows are always the same Measure every step during similar way And punch my soul, then lick this wound slowly How does it taste? Still bitter? I think my blood has an essence of your perfume Let us vow to each other that someday we will repent We don`t die of their own accord Searching under the pressure Of the ocean of tears And wherever your god is I know how you feel Keeping over and over Our hearts in the ground Storms of sadness will rising And we`ll reach to the sky The pain doesn`t spread me, it hurts itself Instead of the ashes you`re feeling a raw meat No anger, no joy, no building This is an ordinary monster The monster is me
2.	Inanimate Diary 04:09	lyrics	buy track
Every word that affects the spirit Becomes a spear that hits those who said it Especially those words Eternally Uneasy moment. So afraid to write to you My lifeless letters The burden of my last days Immeasurable, almost unseen Existing for nights and days Feeling nothing but pain You smile at me from the picture So tell me where my soul is? The truth I can’t deny is only physical pain Such a primitive thinking This is my God`s proof Limit of the negative Approaches the solution To save ourselves or to be lost in madness? Continuous insomnia My dreams are ripping me apart Embraced by your desperate cold Mysterious people with pale faces For me there’s only waiting in silence Silence that is broken by my own words I Love You… Step forward, take my hand, Close your eyes We’ve come to the edge
3.	One More Carnation 04:39	lyrics	buy track
Don`t mention me My voice, my direction Inspiring internal demons, go on, Only a word - disappear, catch me, go on Change time and places and then follow you You will never feel all alone Senses, chains Wrong hard ways You will never feel all alone And so I can say goodbye To become memory And a refrain of simple songs Long ago the wall has been constructed We ready to break I can erase all clouds over your head Burden falls, lies in a bag, pick it up Cynically beats from above and beyond Just don`t go crazy more than I I crawl through this spring so long But never can stop you Another carnation reminds me blood But it is not yours All becomes clear not from lips Away from an alien cold Those velvet roses reminds me you But this is my blood
4.	Lullaby to Our Grudges 05:48	lyrics	buy track
Black shadow flies before My eyes, so skillful And doors don`t need any keys There comes a silence and Understanding of each step On my way Because our faith is stronger. Than casual circumstances Can you hear my lingering groan? Can you see my last death? Just to sing lullabies to our grudges Take this day Come my way Time becomes the false judge To us Liberate me! From the night dreams Clouds will hide me Like the mother of all abused Not strong enough to say That you do not need me The nearest road is dirt, but I continue. We will know our dawn We will know our dawn We will know our dawn So close to me, this shadow Brings dark and cold weather During the plague, inside the black rain There comes a silence and Understanding of each step On my way
5.	Angel That Conducted 05:17	lyrics	buy track
Wait again any answers Don`t leave scars Cause I forgot to call them, brother Come near to truth for seconds, need no more Now not demanding constant care Only one can stand with us Reliable and similar Too late to find, I walk alone Embracing your moon, Kissing your sun, My cold dead heart listen to voices Decomposition, hopefully visions My angel that conducted To hell Drown in your eyes My cold dead heart listen to voices This shining stars will help you My angel that conducted My lovely actress dying so long And as far as I`ve got used Deception and imitation, Staying quiet but shout this words To hear our world Electric thinking will burn my dreams Right through the end I`ll show you this way Just able to breath, don`t go away After a lie there is not my love
6.	Black Cobra 03:53	lyrics	buy track
Why is it so hard? Losing a glimpse of hope Abortion or infertility Claws of hours move an emptiness Disturbing the ashes of my love Non-existence seen in their faces Beyond my space, within my life The tunes of loneliness I whisper And hear nothing, but endless silence Like a black cobra you`re tempting all around Don`t need more this snakebite the antidote With a great sorrow I start to realise That your poison always heals me The simple choice To get rid of my thoughts Burning bridges instead of building walls I should disappear and follow the setting sun Why is it so cold? At a silver dawn Actions are more than that signs Up on a ladder can touch my naked soul And you will see your reflection Non-existence seen in their faces Beyond my space, within my life The tunes of loneliness I whisper And hear nothing, but endless silence Let it die! What we would ask them? What are you waiting for? They have been frozen What goes around comes around A silent murder is a perfect crime But one day truth surfaces We’ll be forgiven and put to death Feel it! All these years of dying Have built a temple of lies Heaven hears my cries but does nothing Immense vacuum is in my eyes Please, kiss me one more time Please sting me again Sting me again
7.	No Will 09:40	lyrics	buy track
I disappear every day From the earth Away from your heart Finally, I feel the taste of our dry lips To break them! Never think of it again Outwardly, it would be easier Than it was then to be child Internally run to the image Each word is linked with my life Written torment haunted me Without respite Burn thy diaries, turn it to ashes The freshness mislead me So I have to take this fire And carry it in broken hands Superstition kills me Without respite

about

Moscow Funeral League and Frozen Light presents joint release «The Efflorescence» — the first LP of the Moscow Progressive Death Doom Metal band EPHEMERAL OCEAN.

Catalogue number: MFL 013 / FZL 031.
Release date: November 30, 2015.
Format: CD (jewel box), 8-page booklet.
Total time: 39 min.

New band’s release is a musical and lyrical continuation of the first EPHEMERAL OCEAN’s EP — «Honour in the Mask». The songs are about man’s feelings after drama that happened with him. «Emptiness, weakness, anxiety, despair, diffidence and uncertainty over everything. Anyway, through the sounds and letters you see that something new is in bloom, something is showing through worn paint. And you don’t know what’s next, but it’s the only way to go» — that’s what musicians and band’s lyricist said.
