lyrics
For I have bathed in ash, and I have ridden across the seas
For I have walked the sands of time and I have watched them fall
Falling from the hourglass... as I fell, as I stumbled, as I gazed upon Man
My reflection now echoing my pain, these scars are written,
Am I the enemy to reign? Rid me of these fibers, I can't delay
The elements heard of the reckoning too late
To squash the souls of every being, lament
I stared up at the weeping vaults of Heaven,
Seeing the Hanged Man, Cast down in a deathlike fever
The Sun illuminating his wounds,
Set adrift in the catacombs of the livid Tower
I crawled through the orchard of God,
covered in blood and drowning in scoria to make my ascension
Devouring the roots & bones of serpents
I watched the desecration of His temple,
With this palimpsest it comes to pass
...and dredge through these shallow murky waters, I am נָפַל, I am reborn! The harvest dawns and I gaze through the dust of angels into the grim abyss
There in the light of midnight, candles lit
a temple stands and the morning star shines
Behold I hold the key of the seven gates!
Adorned with Irkallian winds!
O beguiling, perilous star of the morning! darken my harrowed plea!
To illume the path so dark and devour the empty!
At the end, when nothing else remains
A temple stands and a fire burns! …and the morning star shines
At the end, when nothing else remains
A temple will stand and a fire burn! …and the morning star shines
The Belgian band explore heavy psych, tribal rhythms, free-jazz freakouts, meditative drone and the vast, shadowy spaces in between. Bandcamp Album of the Day Jun 22, 2020
Wow this album has been in my collection for a while and Im just getting around to giving it a proper listen. This is really good, can’t believe that I passed over this for so long. Bret
