3. Christened upon the Slab (3:53)
Struck suddenly
a bruise fades
to the yellow brown color of fields
tread solely by the knights of disease
Not black
but this ghastly gold
of the forgotten urn
is the color of passing
Reborn - nameless
Reborn - lifeless
This sepian countenance
A hollow shell
A sacred promise
Torn from the world
What is our purpose?
What are the signs?
The brittle touch
of our flawed design
In this finality with features of life faded away
a vacant husk - no love or ambition
As being torn from sleep by a disturbing but forgotten dream
our destiny chosen, by others, starting with the name
Christened upon the slab
Reborn "the body"
Now just an object
all out of respect
A stoic distance
needed to stem the decay
So suddenly
this life fades
into the shadows of realms unknown
tread by all mortals in time
In the final moments
of futures undone
Where even the virtuous crumble
each of us shall know three
The reaper - The slab - Earth or Inferno?
Christened upon the slab
Reborn "the body"
A hollow vessel
that once was alive
Baptized in indifference
and fed to hungry knives
The reaper - The slab - Earth or Inferno?
a bruise fades
to the yellow brown color of fields
tread solely by the knights of disease
Not black
but this ghastly gold
of the forgotten urn
is the color of passing
Reborn - nameless
Reborn - lifeless
This sepian countenance
A hollow shell
A sacred promise
Torn from the world
What is our purpose?
What are the signs?
The brittle touch
of our flawed design
In this finality with features of life faded away
a vacant husk - no love or ambition
As being torn from sleep by a disturbing but forgotten dream
our destiny chosen, by others, starting with the name
Christened upon the slab
Reborn "the body"
Now just an object
all out of respect
A stoic distance
needed to stem the decay
So suddenly
this life fades
into the shadows of realms unknown
tread by all mortals in time
In the final moments
of futures undone
Where even the virtuous crumble
each of us shall know three
The reaper - The slab - Earth or Inferno?
Christened upon the slab
Reborn "the body"
A hollow vessel
that once was alive
Baptized in indifference
and fed to hungry knives
The reaper - The slab - Earth or Inferno?
