Lyrics
While Decades trail like vapors, a relic of horror lifts its gaze
Out of darkness condensed stares the strange and familiar haunted eyes
Now beyond wastes both empty and hostile
Trembling hands hold fast their anchor
Like our ship, he emerges from shadow
Revealing a cold visage, scarred with fear
Obeisances withheld by conflicted moons
that have found themselves in a more stable orbit
Violent descent from remorseless heavens
...extinguished words
Holding our breath until...we descend
Like an ode to an ancient Earth out of forgotten human dreams
Quiescent mountains slumbering
Treading depths unseen beneath the cerulean seas
Wading through the mind of Achyuta
Vacant seems this world to which we were beckoned
A voice then heard by all thus began from within
'He who fabricates the flesh to which your souls are bound
Is sentenced to forget under an eclipsed lunar shroud
And to remember when he ascends, along the northern node'
Souls ensnared in shock, by what they next received -
'Such prisoners of flesh shall be no longer deceived
Stolen sacred rites which mere faith cannot abide
Programmed to forget your many former lives
But there is something you can do, and we will guide you'
'In your heart let this blade confide
Thus free shall ye rise
...into our rarified atmosphere'
