wisdom infinite, held tightly in my grasp
|
my sword one thousand battles strong
|
ageless i remain, beyond the reach of death
|
indebted by my soul
|
|
i have witnessed the birthing of your faith
|
the tribulations, the driving of the stake
|
so slowly this immortal coil unwinds
|
until the end -- the end of fucking time
|
|
blood of the ancient one is burning through my veins
|
the blood of gods man's never known
|
i am the one who cannot die
|
i am the the killer for all time
|
seeds of infinite hate i've sown
|
|
i walk the earth enshrouded in its darkness
|
eclipsing, i claim the flesh of man
|
ageless i remain with vengeance on my breath
|
revolted by the meek
|
|
i have witnessed the birthing of your faith
|
the tribulations, the driving of the stake
|
so slowly this immortal coil unwinds
|
this crumbing world -- has become mine
|
|
see the creation of this world
|
see it all reduced to ash
|
in the blink of a sunken eye
|
i see one hundred winters pass
|
my blessing, my curse
|
perpetually i'm damned to earth
|
of a soul i am bereft
|
forever dying to be dead
|
|
slipping through centuries untouched by human love
|
void of the simple pleasures that human life provides
|
forever bound, i lie in wait, undying -- and insane
|
|
see the creation of this world
|
see it all reduced to ash
|
in the blink of a sunken eye
|
i see one hundred winters pass
|
my blessing, my curse
|
perpetually i'm damned to earth
|
of a soul i am bereft
|
forever dying to be dead!
