Illuminance 11:42
Reborn and covered in smolders Breathing lead filled air Drenched in purified smoke Shaded by trees like mountains Roots that cover rocks and men Born again from the oceans and the sky Breathing air purified by sunlight, gleaming May he who heralds the night be the signal of my return to the earth Am I breathing? Or have I become one with the earth? Beneath the tender soil These solemn nights converge into one And may trees grow at my resting place May they shade me from the light of the stars Shed their leaves on me in the autumn May what is theirs becomes ours The wall I see, a light through me Am I dreaming? Or have I become one with the earth? Beneath the tender soil These solemn nights converge into one
2.
Take your place among the stars And shine down on moonlit meadows low Fill the empty horizons with your light Guiding wanderers through the dark I can still hear you as you sing that mournful tune The night is silent all but that simple mournful tune I'm not alone in this place You paint the world in your hue You pierce the dark with your light You are the sound that masks the air I walk among them And breathe the air they breathe But I feel so misplaced here Beneath the glimmering night Surrounded by the dark I feel your essence as if you were among us Are you home? Is this light yours? Why is it fading? Don't leave me

about

To say farewell to Of Solitude and Solemn in a proper way, I'm uploading a remaster of Starlight's Guide I've been sitting on for a while that sounds significantly better than the original unmastered version.

The album intended to come after this will indeed be released but under a different name. Keep an eye on the Facebook page for more information. Thank you for the support up to this point.

-Joseph Hawker, formerly Of Solitude and Solemn
