Transcendence Lyrics

Velvet dreams of ebon darkness
Swirling like shadows, sepulchral and warm
Nightborn phantoms rend me painless
To a thousandfold aspects of blackness I'm torn

Sands of time are running backwards
To ages enshrouded by vast cloaks of gloom
Translucent tnedrils stretching outwards
Transcending the threshold of yesterday's doom

I wander landscapes godforsaken
Though crosses loom into an uncaring sky
Corpses decay 'long the paths I had taken
For sins born out of their hearts they had died

Ash clouds on red horizons gather
Emitting from stakes illuminating the night
For spirit, son and holy father
Their hot, cleansing fire's devouring my bride

The saviour's sheep now flock the scaffold
Their hypocrite faces are frozen in glee
Witness my loved one's torture untold
Our unison wailing in agony

And as the thirteenth candle flickered
My past life laid plain as a book before me
I'll walk in wrath amongst the wicked
Preach Christendom's fall into eternity
