Mesmerized i bleed in asphyxiated delight
Reaching for the fearful luxury of passing
With such cold brightness my eyes do gleam
An overture for ending we're all about to dream
As the primal equilibrist falls down once again
And the (red-handed) architects of the promised land
Lay down their schemes
An image of a self-mutilating world unveils before me
In the sands of time
Where destiny had drawn my mortal self...
In such grim existence
Enfold me black shroud of joyless rapture
Bring blindness to my jaded sight
Unfurl the maelstrom of night eternal
And embalm me with a promise of light's absence
Let forgetfulness devour our names
And find me down here
Below the rotten leaves of autumn
Where life's summer lies transfixed
