Sun and Moon for eyes
Purgatory at downtime
Eden in entropy
(Depravity and anguish)
Underneath the ashes of a razed forest
Safeguarded trophies of defeat
Honesty as pay, sacred clarity
I shall be as an extension of nothing
Tread the hallows, add to annals
Stack the cities and pyres ever higher
Enkindle, inspire, and mislead
Eat the dreams of sorcerers
(Eat the regrets of the sacrificed
I make the prophet my bedfellow)
Hollow as a wish, sinful; unbound
Put out my eyes, I cease to speak
You cut my tongue, now I'm blind!
I sequestered myself but now
I'm ready to make myself known
