lyrics

We knew the days approached, but no one prepared.
Nightfall used to follow day, now it consumes our existence.
Ever greedy for more...
The clouds turned black and descended upon the earth,
never rising, never fading.
We are the makers, the destroyers, the ones who beg to know,
but to know is to devour.

Shrapnel peppers the walls, like it was the main course
in the vilest of meals and soon we too will dine on the dead.

The rats which used to gnaw at our ankles are now a memory
followed by a rumble from our empty bellies.
They pushed forth, further than we had ever expected.
Our delusions of safety gone, devoured.
Bodies line the streets, rotting flesh reeks.
The sun has no place over this hell.
The sun could only magnify this putrid smell.
We huddled in our basements like weak followers,
waiting to be told that it was okay to come out now.
Never okay, never ending, never free, fight we must,
For the war rages on! The war rages on!

Vol.1 Dark Ambient
by This Is Darkness

supported by 4 fans who also own “The Storm”

❤️My original plan was to go through and buy individual tracks like I do with most compilation albums, but honestly there are just so many good ones that I wound up buying the whole thing. More than simple drones (though there are plenty of those, too), this album collects many of the best and most innovative dark ambient artists in one place, including many who are new to me. A must-have for any dark ambient fan's collection. Plushie Fanatic
