-------------------------------- Lyrics --------------------------------

We have gathered to honour those
Who so early passed out of time
Flock together to preserve some warmth
Last children of mankind

So many have died for a cause
A cause without reason
So few dared to take a stand
Against the prevailing treason

What science gave
Science did take back
All religions enslave
We walk in our ow tracks

We are killing the sun
To prove that there is none

We have gathered for a last farewell
To the essence of life itself
Sing together on this final verse
Last children of the universe

They all suffered pain so that our time would gain
The knowledge and wisdom to avoid it
But we had to know for ourselves how it goes
Impatiently causing our own ending

They said don't touch but we had to learn
How it feels like to burn
It was shining so bright, the ultimate light
It blinded us all into darkness

From These Wounds was a masterpiece. This album was a complete mess.

[Chaserdavid]

@eric20ike Whohh. Would you explain why?

[NoGodsforMe]

Funeral is pure awesome =D

[melodiccreepingdeath]

aww, id have to differ :O Its a perfect comeback for it!

[Solitudinis]

@eric20ike Why a mess??? I find this to be one of the best Doom releases ever but to each its own.

This song reminds me of To Mourn is a Virtue, but with male vocals.

Nothing good could come up from comparing From These Wounds, to As the light does the shadow; personally, it took me some time before i enjoyed this album. It has a different aproach towards the listener, it goes to stablish a deeper conection with the listener wich might be the reason why some may not like it.

[TheShenanigans88]

theyre my favorite too, but so far, this album's not living up to the last one for me :[

[HikariLicht]

I've never listened to this band before. While I do love the music, I'm not too keen on the vocals. I'm'a listen to a few more songs before I make my mind up on the band though.

agreed to you they are the cleanest voice in all of funeral doom bands....
