Aureum Lux Lyrics

What comes after the ordeal?
An expiration sweeter than death
The pain of division is as nothing
and the joy of dissolution all
Any empire created is ultimately an empire lost
As death is the crown of all
Everything passes
The end of the illusion
Where the wheels stop spinning
Where the rivers run backwards
Into the golden light
There is a veil that is black
The veil of the pain and the sorrow and the death
Tear down this lying spectre of the centuries
Hear me! People of sighing
The sorrows of pain and regret
Are left for the dead and the dying
