In the mythoi of all worlds, in all eras In the ancient rhymes of verse, ageless and hallowed Are the pure whispers singing of the end The heart of all the races past, who left us their words Beat in full knowledge that it will have an end As it had its primal source, both which the same A sacred bridge whose name is carnage and decay Bearing alone the footsteps of the gods Far from the rising tide of death Which follows dissent divine The final throes of entropy are sworn Bitter sleep of the sovereign sun Whose child from abyssal womb Will bless the seed of gold When echoes divine dissent, perceived below The race of earth will answer in antiphonal cries To take up arms with gods, a future bestowed Or perish in the earthly dust's unbidden demise
