"What I was once, I still am"

Praise, across the blind horizon

The unthinkable

The absurd unknown comes to rise

To open his hands, to die again

Paradox of life outside the restraining shell

The creature marks the bridges of time

There’s no return no coming back for us

Dirges coming like waves

Mankind talking to mankind in mourning

Noumena Inaccessible shine

But shadows embrace it all

Shadows embrace you all

Here is the divine horror

Numinous life of the dead

The scent of putrid breath

Indifferent, eucharist elicits the power, the horror

Life is formed then deformed

The wonder will strike

So cold and numb we'll knee

In front of that which burns

Out of this world, out of myself

Tis’not for us, never again

Light fades away, soon to be banished

Out of this world, I know:

I belong to you

Nothing is required but the courage to stare

To be alone, to open the eyes

Here beyond the constraints of fate

To be born and die again

To respawn by horrible stings on venomous ecstasy

The nest will swarm

Its horrid form

The nest will swarm

And spread its pest

Never thought the time would come

The time to meet

Then those eyes blazed, unextinct

In the dark for me!

Numinous life of the dead

Weep for the lies you told and for all those unspoken

Open your eyes and see the silence

Light, hunger, bliss will be no more

And so the pace that fades away

Nowhere but here
