lyrics

If they told you that you'd live forever
Would you want to learn the revolution of our skies?
When they told you that you'd be lost in our world
Did you know that you'd be lost until the end of time?

Now instead bury your hands in the earth
Whose core burns with the fires of inevitability
Now instead pour the sand in your mouth
And drink from the fountain which will erase your steps

This, the cycle in the timeless plane will never be broken
Your despair fills your lungs with shades of panic
Reaching for the waking gasp of a nightmare snapped,
But you will never leave this place, never die and never live

Your grave will be the clothes on your body
Your tombstone will be the empty words you speak
Your autumn breeze will be the cruel whip of the desert wind
And your rain will be the silent tears of a thousand lifetimes

In and out of time, wasting away
Under skies made of flame and fury the fugue carries on,
A fickle sun watches the madness unfold below.

supported by 4 fans who also own “A Fickle Sun”

Some of the most incredible black metal I've heard, both amazingly creative while surprisingly traditional. Normally I'm not a fan of putting acoustic songs in metal albums, but in this case they are just too beautiful to do without. ganondox
