Sounds of Coming Darkness
Through the pale door An evil step be taken The dead is forsaken Ties eternal broken “And thus the sad soul that here passes Beholds it but through darkened glasses” Ask the blind worm Secrets of the tomb Unseen rivers Waters of human tears Dying hour Pain I could not feel Through hollow minds It takes death to love life Through hollow minds The timeless measuring of time Hold within my hand Grains of the golden sand A chaos of deep passion Mute fear of things unseen Sounds of coming darkness Of beings that have been

“He who has never seen The daylight peer Into a darkened room...” Rise! To raise man from secret darkness (x3) Man’s will is a floating shadow In the mind that he conceives And the rights of mankind pass (And) perish like the autumn leaves Rise!

That drip all over We, like infants descend In our shadows, on the earth Like a weak, mortal birth My eyes, more and more Like a sea without shore Continue expanding The heavens commanding... Could I but be consumed And pass from time’s memory Into the emptiness of nowhere “The dead so soon grow cold” Now I will arise and strip me of time and space I must create a system Or be enslaved by another man’s I will not reason and compare My business is to create... With bricks of shame Built with bricks of shame (Repeat first verse) Eternity rolled wide apart At the end of our path

Out of chaos came the earth Noontide of seventh aeon Voices from the threshold stone The melancholy waters lie Voices from the threshold stone My soul was a stagnant tide Dying swan by Southern lakes Sings its wild death song Voices from the threshold stone My ruin moulders into rest Voices from the threshold stone Tempt me not with glory possessed
