Black Tongue - Crippled Before the Dwelling Place of God lyrics

Artist: Black Tongue

album: Nadir


I lay, torn and aghast, at the gates of the dwelling place of God
My body is broken
Every bone shattered against its rails
Every vein spilled across its towers
My blood flows in rivers with the grain
If I could cry still, I would, but all tears are spent
My mouth shudders the words, I screamed as I pounded on those unmoving doors
My silent lament
There is no greater hell than isolation
And so as you were in life, you shall be in death
Alone within, alone without
In the eons, that echo twists and throbs and coalesces
Beside the palest form quivering outside the dwelling place of God
A crystal hand caresses his face, closing the eyes of his unseeing frown
I felt that final kiss with lightning's crack
The echo reaches through time and space in the black
From that old room with the rope as my vertebrae snaps
