Teratisms Undying

May the price of your heaven be this hell

So we wander through all that is
Born up from shadows and lies
And everything that I have not
Is stained black with the blood of the blind
Whether chains of enslavement in silver
Or the glitter of the gilded cage
Are no less the bars between us
And our dreams as we march to the grave

In the horrors that breathe, of all that will be
Let us fear not the lies that they speak
Lest we are condemned
To die on our knees
Our knees

As dusk descends so all this must end
Let us lift up our hearts and become
The nameless damned, will you join the dance?
Of their culture's poisonous song
Let night begin, the winds whisper in
The echoing absence surrounds
To claim the means to sever the strings
To the myths to which we are bound
