Of Chaos and Eternal Night |
This is a tale long to live but alas so short to tell |
By the wind and by time, by everything that flees |
A torment of my liking: exploring extremes |
All thoughts secluded as fear stalks its blooded soil |
In the winding path where a chain now rattles |
With links merely death can break |
Stains of pride — derelict |
In feverish visions of agonising light |
Pulsating rhythms unpure |
So pound the drum and strike the chords of chaos |
So scream out to the skies: |
Of Chaos and Eternal Night |
Never is the dark any threat to my existence |
Comforting ravens claws grip the stars that fell tonight |
THe stealth of infinite beauty |
Nevertheless heaven fell tonight |
Racing along with the strangled teardrop |
Life’s elixir in benevolent lust |
Slit open the throat that is virtue |
Let fire ravage its caverns with joy |
Ardent but silent in twilight resigned |
Delivered from virtue in vehement plight |
Yet ask not of your vanity |
(The hooved agitator in your creed) |
To let loose all the stars of heaven |
Stray across the vault your seed |
Concealed cravings must through fulfilment be broken |
Hide no longer behind the veil of unconvincing lies |
So pound the drum and strike the chords of chaos |
So scream out to the skies |
Of Chaos and Eternal Night |
I’ve seen fires waving patterns |
Forging ornaments — hidden from a world of distress |
Grace through hatred |
Of Chaos and Eternal Night |
In shadows now vengeful waiting out your bitter foe |
The mirror distorts |
Sinful is the perceiving eye |
Tearless in nondescript form |
Scarlet secrets tell of nightmarish fear |
Illusions that speak of endless night |
A venture in terms of one hazardous journey |
Into Chaos and Eternal Night |
Deliver me from virtue |
Hidden no more beneath tender veil of lies |
And let 'em all out; |
Unseen and sinful |
… Of Chaos and Eternal Night |
