Serpent Sun - Nightbringer
Written by:Kyle Spanswick/William Cavanaugh/Carl Nordblom
For body's sleep became
The soul's awakening
And closing of the eyes
True vision
Arrghhhh
Awake
My void drunk eyes
Amidst
The tumult of filth and rats
Awake
Amidst the waves
Of dismal Lethe
And behold in truth at last
Sunk and sunk and sunk have I
Into skin and sin and sleep
Yet this wasteland has revealed a gate
And my heart holds it's key
Oh pierce the webs of dream
Pierce my cold lifeless heart
Night bringer light bringer
Infernal firstborn spark
Ignite my funeral altar
And let me rise like the dawn
From the dregs of darkest ignorance
To the blinding light of your throne
So grant me now that sacred drink
From the spring of memory
Grant me those secret songs
That shall lull the stars to sleep
And when the night falls blackest
In the slumbering underground
Shall my woken soul take flight
On the rays of the serpent sun
I dance in maddest fervor
Ever backwards through death's door
And beneath my hooves of steel
Break the masks that I once wore
Oh see how bright it burns
That fire for which I seek
That the faces of angels boil off
And their ashes sing it's majesty
Praise thee
Mystery
The muses of the Osgood
That thine secret psalmody
Paeon apollon
Speak through me thine prophecy
Higher and higher
Beyond the seven I shall reach
Blind my sight
With gold and blood
And lapis lazuli
Deeper and deeper
Into the very
Heart of the sun
Below the shadows
Fall in multitude
But here
The light is one
