lyrics
A New Sun,
The Dying Earth.
Blessed one
Brings rebirth.
The sun is crimson, faded
Like an erupting sore;
It barely burns and we are
Freezing to our very core.
Surrounded by these ruins,
Our forebears’ worship halls,
We have forgotten all the
songs and faces of their gods.
A New Sun,
The Dying Earth.
Unavoidable void!
Unavoidable!
Unavoidable void!
Inescapable fate!
Inescapable!
Inescapable fate!
A brand new day
Awaits,
Rushing towards you,
But you and me
Slaves
To the dark and night.
There’s no escape
From the pain
Waiting for you,
And you will see
Change
Right before your eyes.
Can you hear the calling
From the wilderness outside?
Every mountain shall be humbled;
Every valley lifted high.
Unavoidable void!
Unavoidable!
Unavoidable void!
Inescapable fate!
Inescapable!
Inescapable fate!
A brand new day
Awaits,
Rushing towards you,
But you and me
Slaves
To the dark and night.
There’s no escape
From the pain
Waiting for you,
And you will see
Change
Right before your eyes.
A brand new day
Awaits,
Rushing toward you,
But you and me
Slaves
To the night.
There’s no escape
From the pain
Waiting for you,
And you will see
Change
Come alive!
I see this equilibrium approach;
The way made straight,
Every crack filled in,
Every pore permeated.
This high black mass
Where all light and mass
Is spread like a stain
Across all possible worlds,
(All possible worlds) robbed of possibility,
Made one in naught,
Being in nothing.
Existence, existence everywhere,
But nor a single drop to drink:
The dying of light!
The dying of heat!
The dying of motion!
The dying inside of me!
But I will not be afraid:
I will embrace my fate!
The ground is shaking, changing;
The waters gather in.
The mountain peaks consumed by tidal waves
And fractured split.
The sky is broken, shattered,
Cracked to the firmament.
The light of dying stars
Illuminates the grievous rent.
There is no magic bullet
To kill this enemy.
Our only savior has
Forsaken us to entropy.
The prophets doom descending,
Thy wickedness repent!
Nobody cares about your
Motherfucking arguments!
A brand new day
Awaits,
Rushing towards you,
But you and me
Slaves
To the dark and night.
There’s no escape
From the pain
Waiting for you,
And you will see
Change
Right before your eyes.
