Eyes of Ligeia
EP • 2004
I am the center of the eldritch north The sunwheel that revolves in the night My time is passing but supreme will I be When the stars come right again A constant light amidst constant change The Dark Fire creates entrance from barrier The infinite mind rules the finite sky Then the stars will be right again Hopelessly adrift in the black seas of time A path without focus is no path at all Polaris dreams of the Master The one who has opened the way Polaris brings order to madness And madness alone brings sanity

The moon turns my words against me Its light shows my lies To this sunken place the dead all come But for my oath I would join them The ravens descend from the tower To place on my heart the fire Black as dead night they watch As the words find their purpose The tide draws out under the sinking moon The spires of the dead city gleam One last gaze upon the towers of home After death I have no need of this place The ravens have done their task They carry the oath to the wind The bond will be fulfilled When the moon comes right again

The head of the dragon has fallen Succumbed to the death it foresaw Endings are but new beginnings When the starts come right again The thirteenth atu rules this world Beyond death the Elect alone will endure Though the angles are strange yet compelling The stars must rotate right again The moon shines down upon us Eclipised by the he who shuns the light The dark shadows pass over the surface Only death may make way for rebirth The seven stars fuard the gate to the hidden Beyond the hidden lies the source of the flame The flame burns within and beyond me I become an isolator, the stars the source of my essence Thirteen atu, thirteen oaths Nine angles and nine ways of becoming I sail beyond the angles Yet the angles are the way The one who haunts in the dark Is the sender of livid nightmares The shining stone is as black as the angles Starry wisdom shows the way to the hidden source

When age fell upon the world and wonder went out of minds of men when grey cities reared to smoky skies tall towers grim and ugly in whose shadow none might dream of the benighted sun There was a man who traveled out of life into spaces whither the world's dreams had fled After years he began to call the slow sailing stars by name and to follow them in fancy when they glided regretfully out of sight one night a mighty gulf was bridged the dream haunted skies swelled down to the lonely watcher's window to merge with the close air of his room and to make him a part of their fabulous wonder Noiseless infinity eddied around the dreamer and wafted him away
