Monolith

I am a pillar

I am a rock

A universal constant

A question mark

Do I exist

I feel nothing

But catharsis

Ignite and rewind

Feel the crumbling design of your molten mind

And greet the pillars

Of ascension

Erase and revive

This obelisk holding your ethereal arch

O Monolith

My quintessence torn

At the edge of the Phaneron

Eternal structure

Consumed by rot

Apocryphal resilience

Obsidian nightmares slowly turn into euphoria

And the pillars fall

Ignite and rewind

Feel the crumbling design of your molten mind

And greet the pillars

Of ascension

Erase and revive

This obelisk holding your ethereal arch

O Monolith

My quintessence torn

At the edge of the Phaneron

Sing

And watch the tree of life fall without a sound

Let the past fall to pieces as the pain increases

Let the pillars fall

Sing

And turn this gushing wound into a scar

Breath

Ignite your flayed heart into a star

I've been living a lie my soul trapped in a windowless cell

10,000 years down the line roaming my own fiery hell

Monolith, unyielding agonising sealed in a bottomless pit

A testament to the flagellant mind

Monolith

Monolith...

Ignite and rewind

Feel the crumbling design of your molten mind

And greet the pillars

Of ascension

Erase and revive

This obelisk holding your ethereal arch

O Monolith

My quintessence torn

At the edge of the Phaneron

Monolith

Monolith

Monolith

Monolith...
