Cast in the shadow of endless sleep
As the solemn black heavens absorb the earth
A mindless tale with no end
Riddled with lies and defeat
From gold to dust upon an altar of dirt
A gathering of astral beings
Their will shall be done
Anointing the destiny of man's governed fate
Beyond the waking of the dawn
Proclaims the clandestine rites of the ancient ones
Forever in the shadow of giants
A communion of the consumption of purity
The primal rite will be obeyed
A mindless tale with no end
Riddled with lies and defeat
No purpose or meaning at hand
Behold, the illusion of existence
The hunting for ages for a sign
The meaning of a life is the wisdom unattained
The heavens observe without end
Celestial, somber and wise
Beyond the waking of the dawn
Proclaims the clandestine rites of the ancient ones
As the solemn black heavens absorb the earth
A mindless tale with no end
