Shriving Time |
Oh what glorious fields we have reaped |
Brazen, envenomed with pride |
In circular motion we harvest defeat |
On the gallows the tide turns to night |
Luna wakes to illuminate deeds to be done in the shelter of darkness |
Thus betrayed we claim schemes to be less than they seem and divide to hush up |
our departures |
Ominous shadows and bringers of light gather up the droppings of angels |
Then at cockcrow they hurry for a place to be buried and their arrogance turns |
to the coldest of despairs |
…ah |
Territus terreo! |
Slave to our meaningless goals we crawl |
Torn between heaven and hell |
Humana sighs, to vermin and filth she’s born |
And duly serves her helpless masters well |
And now, by our burden of sins |
We are drawn down upon our knees |
Again to crawl as we used to do |
With the fields now infertile we turn |
And blame the blood of our brothers |
The sky shall grow black as we burn |
And our smoke is reversed by the heavens |
Luna wakes… |
