lyrics

Hommage of a dying world

I curse you all without eyes to see
A gospel to the masses of an idiocracy
Damned from here to eternity
A comprising predictions

So damn you all who slumbers in the wake
Who only see what’s gracious
The degrading limbo of freeze
So ludicrous and small

And from their mouths came a whispering silence
Unheard without signs to oppose
Inside out turned their differing views
And was reduced to ash

And was reduced to ash
Back into nothingness
From where they came

Oh, God are you inside of me?
Are you above me?
Are you below me?

I saw the light, I saw the signs
Of these portents so clear
A brief moment of clarity
A homage to a dying world

All was buried under rubble and dust
The collapse of empires
Our decline foretold the death of kings
While the fools remained chanting
While the fools remained chanting

Contra mundum
The flesh is weak
