Aphrodite's Winter - Cathedral

Frozen land mesmerised by her arcane mystery

Goddess of the underworld cold queen of lost beauty

Gazed upon earth’s battleground

At mankind’s misery

With her saddness came love’s death

As violence slowly siezed

Her wheeping tears of darkness crytallised the earth

As warmth turned colder, her grief chilled away all mirth

Frosted armies paused in war now wearing beards of snow

Perishing forevermore, her bite numbs to the bone

Housed in icy caves, men of peace rest in these times of woe

Shaking in glass coffins, waiting for the sun to glow

She cast her spell on earth and all emotion died

Her languid heart dulled the skies with love’s demise

She crystallised the earth with water from her eyes

A frozen sun now hangs above this land’s demise
