lyrics

Paint above thy brow, weeps upon the path to ascent
With each step, scarlet petals fall; leading ye orphaned hearts herein
...'Tis the ichor of Ha'Adam, the sigil of thy shame

Wanderings to and fro, evanesced this imbrued trail
Through the mires of their mind, my celebrants begin to lose their way
For they know not, these starless depths I hath known
...Lost in the catacombs of life, the long night lures them astray

Anon, my house shall be the pyre, drawing near all ye weary wayfarers
Spark unto spark, ember unto ember; voraciously feeding upon itself
...A beacon indelible, by the deluged cup of life

And yet, these flies of folly shall swarm upon this radiant flame
Drunken fools burning away; swollen-bellied by the bitter wine
For they know not, such wantonness brings forth the eventide
...Void of shame and above all things, the might of thy light; now suffocate

"As sable waves crash against blinded eyes
Arousing sense of wonderment illuminates my mind
All is unknown; All is concealed
For in sorrow and darkness, secret truths form and reveal
Spellbound by faces, figures, and fractals ahead
Anointed laughter exhumes fortune of the dead
Stirring the ground, below the kingdom of no lands;
A once-rumbling roar, now a whimper…
Deafened by time's falling sands"

I am alone
A King amongst beasts; sunken now be thy crown
Lying ravished, breathe is fleeting;
Long ago I hath endured this end
Yet, to have known of me,
Is to know of "death"...and of it's longing
…And in this truth, my seed was sown

...And all that has ever been, will always ever be.
{Fin.}
