I gnash the leg, I take and incise
I'll swear to die, I'm leaving the night.
This soul has sundered the meaning,
The slaughter rises.
Puncture thy palm and summon me!
Ah, the soul,
you have always died inside the aria:
O night if only I could be by you...
This fabricated endless torture
Was masquerading as pleasure.
I seek wisdom and endurance!
The destined hum of the amber oak,
enshrouded in foliage, a leaping smoke.
Sun choking fallible roots,
The hidden minds bare thy liquid fruits.
O night if only I could be by you...
Scythe the seed that sows your greed.
Hide the feed from the flesh you eat.
Pierce this branch with an emblem.
Trap me at the helm of
Heaven?
Tumble towards the beginning.
The light is encompassing me.
I cannot! No!
Impending dawn!
Impending dawn.
Impending dawn.
This carcass, challenge the light.
Would it hurt to consolidate our lives?
If this darkness shall not envelop me,
There is no comfort in the illumination of destiny.
