All Is Vanity |
Beyond the veil I see time’s purpose in the passing |
Imagined visions left congealing on the stone |
'neath which the ritual, the old convention |
Dispels the glamour of the corpse upon the throne |
Born to a failed prophecy |
All they knew was a fallacy |
Their eyes turned blind in disbelief |
To the higher truth: All is vanity |
All empires fall into obscurity |
All horizons fail |
The more I know the less I hope |
Your every action is indiffrence |
And progenation is th tritest of them all |
The seed they scatter, begetting vessels |
Filled with the hollow promise of a false eternity |
Behold |
Graven in the image of the godhead |
Wrought by benefactors of the creed |
Whether robed in flesh of flock or shepherd |
All is vanity |
All empires fall into obscurity |
All horizons fail |
The more I know the less I hope |
All is vanity |
All is vanity |
All is vanity |
Covenants to empower and enslave |
In false worth of life |
In flock of Christ |
Behind the gilt conceit |
We bear the earth forged manacles of faiths great treachery |
Great darkness lies ‘neath marble skies |
So thinly veiled, I implore once more; |
apostasy! |
What does man gain by all the toil at which he toils under the sun? |
A parable to clutch? |
This world a monument to shame |
All is vanity |
A striving after wind |
All monotony |
The more I know; |
all is vanity! |
All empires fall into obscurity |
All horizons fail |
The more I know the less I hope |
