Absence of Ourselves |
We cannot stand the frightful sight Of beautiful and benevolent lights To all moments in which we transpire For this moment we all expire It's time to light the Funeral Pyres Of our dreams we start the fires But a word or so it seems Can fill our heart with love or rage Our wisdom lost, we turn the page Of life's great book of wretched dreams We ought to love or so it seems But a word instills such dreams Nothings lost or so it seems A Love once lost our souls this cost Or shall we cry out in bitter shame Scream our hate, a bitter flame This one moment cannot expire Time to light the funeral pyres We have no eyes but we can see We have no faith but we believe These times do change Their Courage fades These Nightmares made We Dream Sweet dreams to all and rest goodnight For We can't, we can't stand the light For Divinity we cannot land The line in which we cannot hold This is where we must stand Fuck the world the lies they sold The demons in which they confide But our gods are on our side Their decadence is their own shame We shall set torch, they'll feel the flame Coming Closer Coming Closer Until they feel the burn Coming Closer Coming Closer Until they start to learn The Tides of War Reach Our Shores The blood with fall Until it all subsides Will god's own hand Forgive your dirty sin We will not stand With your tainted skin We'll rape your dreams We'll hear your screams Until the end of days Divine We start to find A lesson once learned In eons of past We've felt the burn How can it last Sweet dreams to all and rest goodnight For We can't, we can't stand the light |
