Lyrics
Bound to the pyre of time
Ashen hands clasped in mock prayer
Depraved paths, key to the source of hell
Immolate this smothered veil
Let the smoke rise like a sigh
Embittered eyes pierce inside
Searching eternal for a sign
In reveries pain was deep beneath skin
The dendritic splaying cardinal to our kin
Earth scorched & scarred, above not below
And the black roots continue to grow
Immolate this smothered veil
Let the smoke rise like a sigh
Embittered eyes pierce inside
Searching eternal for a sign
Falling inside again
Enslaved to spectral chains
Becoming what I am not
Moulded by disease
The messenger bell is struck
Hallowed white figures call
Striding in their holy procession
A reverie of righteous death
I cling to the precipice of hope
Resignation, looking above the crowd
Standing in their own shackles
Oblivious and inadequate
I call out to her
Shining like the morning star
Beyond the flames of the sun
Standing like a ghost eternal
