Elder Misanthropy |
Wisdom infinite, held tightly in my grasp |
My sword one thousand battles strong |
Ageless I remain, beyond the reach of death |
Indebted by my soul |
I have witnessed the birthing of your faith |
The tribulations, the driving of the stake |
So slowly this immortal coil unwinds |
Until the end -- the end of fucking time |
Blood of the ancient one is burning through my veins |
The blood of gods man’s never known |
I am the one who cannot die |
I am the the killer for all time |
Seeds of infinite hate I’ve sown |
I walk the earth enshrouded in its darkness |
Eclipsing, I claim the flesh of man |
Ageless I remain with vengeance on my breath |
Revolted by the meek |
I have witnessed the birthing of your faith |
The tribulations, the driving of the stake |
So slowly this immortal coil unwinds |
This crumbing world -- has become mine |
See the creation of this world |
See it all reduced to ash |
In the blink of a sunken eye |
I see one hundred winters pass |
My blessing, my curse |
Perpetually I’m damned to earth |
Of a soul I am bereft |
Forever dying to be dead |
Slipping through centuries untouched by human love |
Void of the simple pleasures that human life provides |
Forever bound, I lie in wait, undying -- and insane |
See the creation of this world |
See it all reduced to ash |
In the blink of a sunken eye |
I see one hundred winters pass |
My blessing, my curse |
Perpetually I’m damned to earth |
Of a soul I am bereft |
Forever dying to be dead |
