lyrics

Central fire and the unseen body
Tumble deftly through the dawning
The shell is lost, the will goes on
Shades of forgotten forms
Comes without warning
Slowly falling
I hear it calling

Stumble back in the bleak hereafter
Always was the oblivion you were after
Sneak a kiss to your dying master
All hail the king in his darkest chapter
Wavering in the sky
Commemorate in a lullaby

Debase frail consciousness
Forsake vain sorcery
Get down on your knees in fear
The death knell of an ego trip
Bring the shell close to your ear
A broken code in lieu of prayer
Transmissions over
‘The Giant was here’
While the lights dance all around
What was lost can now be found

The show is about to begin
The curtain rises, go on in
For what it’s worth
I hope you win
Every fight
You imagined
That you did
