Benediction - Eternal Eclipse

Текст:

Another sunrise
Swathes the earth in light
The sun a symbol of innocence
Inverse of the night

Yet with all this energy
Comes a certain weakness
'O hear its silent cries
As the blackness envelops

Amass, congregate
Form an ashen shroud, asphyxiate
Secure restraining reins
Mummify the sun
Drag it down to earth
With its age old flame extinguished

The event of its demise
An invitation to its rival
Lord of insanity
Replacing joy with madness

Now all life on earth
Turns its head towards its master
Rationality
Replaced with numbed mesmerisation

Through centuries of blackness
Ten thousand claustrophobic years
Eyes seeing no light succumb to blindness
And cry longing tears
Land that once thrived
Reduced to greying desert
Smothered by eternal eclipse
An eternity of non-existence
