Swallow the Light

Vast an empty Disorder reigns My will, my being, fade within a loss Of wonder and despair Through me the entrance to eternal pain Through me the path that runs among the lost... the lost Bordering the first circle abyss, the brink of the deep Oscillating between elation and fear All certainty withers Through me the entrance to eternal pain Through me the path that runs among the lost... the lost The gates of mysterium crumble Tormented the deathless still rot Necrotic divinity wailing In this place where nothing will shine The pious mockery is crowned in blasphemy All knowledge, all certainty, all truth withers away Swallow the light Forlorn, bereft of all hope Forlorn, bereft of all life Underneath an eclipse of bewilderment and death I withdraw
