It's no exaggeration to say that my love for Gothic metal began with the  Aégis (1998)  by Theatre Of Tragedy. 🖤Every song from that album is a real soul poem.😭
 I still consider it the best in many ways.  Although there were other great albums by bands like Draconian, Tristania, Lacuna Coil, Macbeth, and others, whose work I also plan to touch.
So I'll try to capture its atmosphere and sound(but brought a piece of myself). 🎶
There will be an echo, gentle vocals,whispers, transitions along with archaic English and everything that was used in that time. 🎸
Welcome to the era of Gothic and memories of bygone days.🌑

==========================================================


[Verse I]
A white rose among the lilies pale
She draws me in, I cannot flee
My gaze is held, bewitched, enchained
By silent grace that tortures me
(White rose… pale…)

[Verse II]
So fragile, yet with thorns she stands
A slender form my hands deny
The more she fades beyond my reach
The more I ache, the more I die
(So far… from me…)

[Chorus]
The more I long, the more I burn
For what my soul shall never earn
The more denied her distant flame
The more I cry her sacred name
(I burn… I burn…)

[Verse III – archaic]
O hwaet, mine herte in darkness bound,
For hire I yearn, yet hope is drowned
She bloometh fair by wyrd unkind,
A rose forbidden to be mine
(Ne mine… ne mine…)

[Both]
The more denied, the more desired
My soul by longing crucified
White rose, my sin, my holy pain
Unheld, unclaimed — yet I remain
(Desired… denied…)

[Outro – archaic]
Ne shall I hold thee, ne thee claim,
Yet breathe thy loss in endless flame
(Endless… flame…)
