Gothic Metal × Shamisen Meets Fusion Vol.1 Front Cover

Lyric

Oath in Shadows

Elven Echoes

In the veil of night, I made my vow

To the unseen god beneath the bough

Whispers burned my mortal skin

The oath of darkness sealed within

Blood on my hands, yet I still pray

For the light I chose to betray

Oath in shadows, carved in flame

I lose myself, forget my name

Bound by silence, chained by sin

The end begins where I begin

He called my soul beneath the moon

His voice a song, my final tune

Shamisen cries through silver rain

Echoes of love, forever pain

Turn the key of night, unlock despair

My promise bleeds into the air

No salvation, no retreat

Only shadows where hearts still beat

Oath in shadows, never fade

Eternal bond that death has made

Through burning stars I still remain

Forever cursed, forever chained
