Lethargus Lyrics


Cast among the flames

To serve gentle and clear

Assigned to give, never take;

Freedom and vengeance never near.

Nights pass over glancing eyes

A deadly silence over his lips.

Commanded to follow

Her treacherous hips.

He gives her a flower

And says he belongs to her;

She looks away so cold

To cast him aside with a whisper.

Nothing will be as it was.

A slave as awoken from slumber,

Blooming as a flower under the Truth.

A damning weight he carries over

To the long hours of each day.

Always his thoughts so far away...

(Servant:)

"Anger, take me.

Show me something new.

Let me fill with thy rage

And my body will be you."

(Anger:)

"Beware son of mortality,

Thy time is small.

And in thy vanity

Thou ruined it all."

"Thou hast a master by choice.

Thou hast thy own voice.

Let it be given to her

As thy feelings begin to blur."

(Servant:)

"But what can I do

When love is confused with fear?"

(Anger:)

"Say goodbye, long overdue.

Walk again: free and sincere."

One day the servant woke

And servant he wanted to be no more.

To her, valiantly, he spoke:

"you´re not the woman I adore"

Outcast he had become:

Alone, afraid, into the open land.

Dreaming of her touch and bosom;

And how her heart had become bland.

(Servant:)

"Hope take me.

Show me something new.

Let me shine with thy light.

My body will be you."

(Hope:)

"Nothing is lost until you choose to.

See, thy time is so small.

There´s nothing more to do

Then to rise after the fall."

Envious and unclear

He returned home to servitude;

Embraced by fear and apathy

He chose her hate and solitude

(Servant)

"Please, hear me

Show me the courage for what I have to do

Let my hands find her pulsating neck

till her vicarious face turns death blue"

"Vengeance, hear me:

She must pay for what she did

Can’t forget and can’t let it be

Time to unleash all the hate I hid"

"After it's done may I rest in glory

Couldn't follow my own path

Couldn't forget our history

Now I sleep with her blood over me."
