The Wisdom Lost
A world of ambiguous comedy As we represent it, typified Dominion of appearance, veils of Maya, Illusion and deceit, reality nullified A world of so called noumena What lies behind the mask Beyond fictitious depictions A cruel, factual, indifferent truth Make valiant attempt to regain that wisdom The Wisdom Lost Everything is Volition A blind and irrational impulse To live and breed, breed the life There's no choice under the sun Make valiant attempt… From this distorted perspective, Love is an illusion of Life We are seduced by Life itself To satisfy its cold desires Make valiant attempt… As we are tied in dark caverns And the real world goes on outside We should struggle to recover The wisdom lost from centuries Make valiant attempt… And in the meanwhile, conscious That world is merely a ersatz Don't give up, don't reject life Accept this reality, amor fati Make valiant attempts to regain that wisdom!

Die! Die by my sword! Hell awaits you once more! Die, die, die for your sins! I am the sigil, and your torment begins! Mine is the wrath of the innocents tortured Those who have been mercilessly slaughtered A million souls crying for rightful revenge With the fury of the storm I crave to avenge Lifeless, limbless, speechless Your choice against my will Lifeless, soulless, mindless A mangled corpse lying still You are fallen carrion worm You are to crawl down to Lucifer’s hell You seem to beg for the last time I see your beheaded corpse kneel I am the Sigil of Torment I am the crimson lord of doom I am a kiss stealing life You are rightfully mine to undo Behold, behold, behold! You’re dead and soon to be cold! I am the Sigil of Torment I am the forger of doom I am the kiss bestowing death You are rightfully mine to undo A slab of stone, a cursed throne, the lid on your last breath Behold my pleasure, for your erasure, your putrid blood I spread And severe you once again with my deadly silver friend No regret, justice by my hand Towards the throne you aspired Now you’ll burn, you who desired fire As I unveil your history untold As destiny unfolds and your flesh turns cold

Wandering the graveyard of bad ideas, Suffering the same slide into obsolescence. Perfect immunity to outbreaks of reasonableness. Uncontaminated by evidence, intoxicated by myths. All the experience accumulated by mankind will turn into ashes. All knowledge and discoveries will be forever forgotten. All achievements no longer make sense. Everything will go into oblivion.
