Impermanence

Old, weak and frail Your body starts to crumble Sad and filled with regrets Your mind begins to struggle Years of torment, of shadows and deceit Haunt you to this day Nothing can make up for all the lost time Nothing left to say Cry out to the void! Beyond the sun, beyond the stars Lie the cosmic plains Beyond the light, beyond the night Impermanence remains Ashes to ashes Dust to dust Suffering and misery have lead you To live your life in pain Now that your light is dying You realise it was all in vain You could have gone the other way But you left your vision behind You should have chosen to turn around Tried to save your mind Cry out to the void But there shall be no answer The ghosts of your past Will haunt you forever

Under the great arch where all flesh rots Dwell the rancid germs of the Earth Cold and dead with their offspring The seeds and the tomb O! moon, o! sun, o! stars! Enlighten the path for this soul tonight! Trampling the soil with heavy stride The virus cleaves the crypt through the night Straight to the old trembling graveyard While forgotten spirits are dying Surrounded by shadows This soul now belongs to the past O! moon, o! sun, o! stars! Look! stare into the abyss As witnesses of the carnage done in your honor The boundless void will stop quivering

Carried away by the breath of the wind The cold, the winter in this timeless splendor Tree limbs are shaking like a scarecrow attacked by ravens The crust of the trunks crumbling piece by piece Farth sinks below the waves of human chaos Captives, under the oppressive grip of a ruthless nature In the most absolute submission, there remains just shells devoid of life Even souls will never find rest and shall fall into oblivion The dark forest in its pure quintessence Reveals the darkest secrets of Gaia Beyond the insolence of this delicate nature A massive and quiet strength slumbering beneath the surface
