In the mist, moondrenched Time ticks with stillness Languid ether Steel and sinew, cartilage and chrome An entity with endless gaze Cold, vermilion eyes infinite stare Materialized in shadow and torn from the veil Emerge the thorned tree of suffering His celestial burden Screams echo off the solid forms that once flowed as fluid time Abomination Rivers of epoch, entire eras carved into inanimate flesh Streaks of blood-red veins etched on cruel landscape Thrown into the throes of cosmic cessation Steel and sinew, cartilage and chrome An entity with endless gaze Cold, vermilion eyes infinite stare Materialized in shadow and torn from the veil Our vermilion dream once breathed essence We crafted the sun with an aura of hate Setting the dunes ablaze Moonfrosted by night A stillborn god presides on an empty throne Orchestrating jaws of nihilism Teeth rip us from reality Clamping, suffocating Meaning projected onto a fabric of nothingness Lost, our fragile dreaming of existence
