Deadened faith, blackened will

False majesty drowning in filth

Eviscerate the mind until

I pray for these prophecies to be left unfulfilled

The cold inhumanity of horizons now flickering out

A captive enslaved by the voice of corruption and doubt

Like the serpent, it feeds

Slowly devouring me in its hungering mouth

In ouroboric shapes

A contorted cycle of birth and decay

Indifferent to the course of our fate

Holding tortured souls in infinite oceans of space

Distorted shades of reality

A weapon of agony

The oracle of my defeat

Now it occurs to me:

The gate, a ripple in the shroud

A voice of clarity

I still can hear it, even now

A single opening

A light is piercing through the clouds

This isn't happening

There's only one way out

I've found the way to ascend

I will not be chained down

Initiate

My inner flame projects

I am not afraid now

To penetrate the veil of truth

To separate myself from you

Take hold of me and pull me through

Annihilate this dream of doom

So, now it seems you've slipped from my grasp

But like flies to flesh, I will bring you back

Whether in your dreams, or the veins of death

You will feel my voice, and we will meet again

Reunited from worlds away

I feel existence calling as darkness fades

Though this nightmare has washed away

Its touch still lingers on me

I've woken, but the scars remain

My soul, awake

My soul, awake

My soul, awake

My soul, awake...
