‘Spirit of Forgetfulness’ Lyrics
---------------------------------------
The thought of you possesses me
You're the dweller of my mind
Where you are utterly and vividly alive
I called upon Lethe
The spirit of forgetfulness
I implored her deeply
To erase my memory
She said "Be careful what you wish for, deary"
"Those waters aren't meant for the living
For all you know, I could be a trickster
Merciless and unforgiving
I might not be your well-wisher"
Lethe decided to help me
The spirit of oblivion
She took me to the underworld
Among the souls of the dead
Where I drank from the river
To help me forget
"Those waters aren't meant for the living
For all you know, I could be a trickster
Merciless and unforgiving
I might not be your well-wisher"
And I forgot it all
Yet I still remember you
I've got no remembrance of who I am
Oh, I forgot it all
Yet I still remember you
I've got no remembrance of who I am
Yet I still know you through and through
Those waters aren't meant for the living
I made a desperate deal with a trickster
Merciless and unforgiving
A misleading voice, with a truthful whisper
Those waters aren't meant for the living
I made a desperate deal with a trickster
Merciless and unforgiving
A misleading voice, with a truthful whisper
Misleading voice, with a truthful whisper

Side note : I like the fact that Nuclear Blast understands and respects the importance of all Blackbriar art continuing to be on BlackbriarMusic instead of their own channel.

How beautiful it is to see the evolution of Blackbriar. This video, in this format, takes us back to the band's beginnings with Ready to Kill. Everything is very beautiful, the framing, the band playing. Zora's Kulning singing is a delight to listen to. Congratulations on the album release! Long live Blackbriar! 🖤🌹

Another dark romantic masterpiece to give eternal love to!🖤🥀💀 What an amazing journey are you taking us on with "A Dark Euphony"?!? I'm glad beyond words that I was present for the video premiere, as the imagery is absolutely breathtaking: Zora making me weak at the knees in the most beautiful sense, again and again, and the guys delivering all the energy and passion we love so much! I mean, just look at the scenery surrounding our insanely talented sweethearts - I don't think any other place could fit the atmosphere of "Spirit of Forgetfulness" or even the general sound of Blackbriar better! What a beautiful way to celebrate the release of the album in style...🥰🎉🎈💥 I also want to thank you from the bottom of my heart, Blackbriar - not only for your incomparable art that saves countless lives and enchants us on a daily basis, but also for releasing a JAPANESE EDITION of the album. This means the world to me, as I'm currently living in the land of the rising sun. Such a release cannot be taken for granted!🇯🇵🫶✨️ This video is another magical sign: Not even the sky is the limit for these wonderful human beings! It means nothing less than the world that we have the opportunity to explore your world again and make it ours!🥀🖤🌙

As always, Zora is a beautiful, haunting, Gothic siren. I also love how the instrumentals in this song sound a lot more triumphant, almost victorious. I love the creepier, more somber vibes of their other songs, but here the guys definitely give us a theme of almost ascension--there's definitely a theme of rising going on here with the music. Or, given Lethe, dare I say... ...a summoning?

@playgamescarlos 9 ай бұрын

Hi! I got my chance to watch your premiere music video, Spirit of Forgetfulness. Your song is pretty good indeed. Instrumentals, vocals, and everything else are good! For music video, this is all cool! A great location for making music video production. Camera movements are good there, and so are the video shots w/edits. Great performances! And your crew deserved round of applauses for all the hard work making music video with all of you! 👏👏👏👏👏👏

I love the mostions Zora makes. I like the face she makes for "be careful what you wish for deary." She is a good actor and performer. Im guessing her hand morions and presence are inspired by Kate Bush since she admires her. Also, I LOVE the spining/dancing near the end while all the band members are jamming out.
