A sullen light, a lurid lamp Shone through the cold Tore through the damp Footsteps on cobblestones Echoed deep within my bones
And I knew I had arrived A small house, a tiny world Fascination had unfurled In me a sense of urgency So I stepped in And looked around A sullen light, dimly lit mound
What I there found To this very day Does confound And to my dismay I have not dreamt Of another light Since the lament In that fateful night That still echoes in my bones
A strange and enchanting melody Then changed my outlook on life All that I'd learnt, darkness of Self And the weeping of existence's breath On the truth that is creeping towards us The blink of eye and our mind is rust An indifferent cosmos, we aren't even dust
And I knew I had arrived A small house, a tiny world Fascination had unfurled In me a new and wondrous sight
The rising sun is bound to set The newborn child to die in bed There is no hope, do not forget All we are, the walking dead The fire turns to blackened coal And for us all, there is no goal Nothing ever can signify A divine purpose, a reason why
The years went by, inside that place Forgetting all of time and space Beneath the roof of that small home A little world for me alone Yet now I wonder, if it was right To step inside that little light
The rot eats at my limbs It climbs my body As I choke on the bile Of my own melancholy That brought me here To witness the dreadful reality Of complete and utter emptiness
Among the walls of this small tomb I await death, as in the womb A sordid light, a tearful lamp Tore through the day, brought in the damp
A sullen light, a lurid lamp Shone through the cold Tore through the damp Footsteps on cobblestones Echoed deep within my bones
And all the secrets buried within Became my own glorious sin Fortune's grace never did smile When my flesh to earth was born And from that first still life's exile Out of the warming comfort torn I longed to reach for the black star That shone on me from beyond far So I beneath, that vast expanse Found here a way to advance Further than this mortal coil Filled with only strife and toil But now the price has come to me And that all I can hope to see Is one more night under this light Before the dark forevermore A strange and enchanting melody Then changed my outlook on life All that I'd learnt, darkness of Self And the weeping of existence's breath On the truth that we're all just creeping towards death The blink of eye and our suns fall to frost An indifferent cosmos we are verily lost
The rot eats at my limbs It climbs my body As I choke on the bile Of my own melancholy That brought me here Empty in despair To witness the endTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
