Embrace
What is to be of this pestilience That makes empires tumble like tears The dust of millenia - fallen ages Staunches the flow of dawning horizons Obscuring - While the days crumble as their hours unfold A sensual swooning - prophetic mocking As the soils swallow the seeds of the past
Each one of us to his own Embrace Drowning in hallowed solitude Swallowing the void Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com The pallid hope revealed at last Embrace
*Why should I fret in microcosmic bonds That chafe the spirit and the mind repress When through the clouds gleam beckoning beyonds Whose shining vistas mock man's littleness?* Throw off those shackles of sufferance This penance of one thousand ordeals I wield the scepter of destiny Choose the means of my own death
[Chorus]
Give me both nails and a hammer Harness those ecstasies of death Prostrate myself on cruciform At last...
With swift feet I made my way Helmed by a cacophony of despair Deaf to the legacy of youthfullness And beauty and joy since pined away Yet now a rush falls upon my ears Of dripping - whispering words The hole of emptiness I pour through Unveils the caress from far beyond
Now no longer can I ignore What goes before has gone again The silence of immorality Satisfied with this one fell step Plunge beneath the waters - The freezing embrace of the goddess of death
[*Quote taken from H.P. Lovecraft's 'Phaeton']
