Lyrics Wound in Night's Flesh - Grafvitnir

Wound in Night's Flesh

Like a wound in night’s flesh
The baleful eye of a gibbous moon
A foaming mouth
Yawned in the sky
A gaping hole
In the canvas of black
Foreboding doom
Enigmatic glow of burning flames
Encaptured in a sacred shrine
Unspeakable yearnings of my heart
Inflamed with love for the divine
An entrance to the void beyond
Entranced by the splendours obscured
Ominously enchanted by the wonders
That hide behind death’s door
A pull that grows from nothingness
Like a wound in night’s flesh
The mysteries of the night
The beckoning whispers of the dark
Whirling mist surrounding the throne
Of the nightside’s ancient monarch
To become a tool of the burning truth
As day becomes night and love becomes hate
Swirling mist of the unconscious
Fathomless mysteries to contemplate
Connecting with energies of warped dimensions
Frozen in an ageless storm
Mesmerized by the swirling enigma
Exiles in time and space
Exiles of an age forlorn
