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… |
