Cimmerian Codex Lyrics

(Music and lyrics by Walker)

Forgive me father
(for I have dreamed)
Of nighted vales,
Betwixt time and light
Still falls the rain,
Silent, unclean
Unfetted, unleashed,
I sought the gate

Lascivious, beckoning,
At thresholds forbode
Satyriasis vermivorous
in shadow encloaked
Frozen in antiquity
(Mocking cruelly)
Tervous in angle
The citadels profane

Across yawning chasm of tribulation
Farewell to Sol, in perpetuam rise
(Ascension beyond) corporeal constraint
Would the glaze of Algol seat my eyes?

Winds from the black mountain rend and tear
Sepulchral thanes, so much walking dust
Ice locked the nexus, an empire awaits
Axiom abhorrent, protean triumvirate
Forgive me father (for I walk alone)
To a destiny untainted, opaque, my own
