A light drips from the vault of night

A dying ember in the throat of void

Aeons pass through soundless skies

Where gods once lingered, now echoes die

Ashen winds chant nameless lore

Across the remnants of distant suns

I walk where time has passed away

Beneath a star that bleeds to black

Withering star, pale and blind

Devouring the dreams of humankind

Your fading breath engulfs the sky

A dying god dissolves in light

No dawn awaits beyond your glow

Cathedrals formed from cosmic dust

Resound with prayers drowned in silence

Every oath collapses into ruin

Within the pull of ancient fear

I drink the dark between your flares

A sacrament of absence and fire

The universe exhales into nothingness

As even hope releases its name

Withering star, pale and blind

Devouring the dreams of humankind

Your fading breath engulfs the sky

A dying god dissolves in light

Withering star, cold and torn

Womb of night, unbound and endless

You crown the dead with silent fire

And draw the soul to its last desire

Black oceans rise behind my eyes

Where truth and ruin merge as one

I’ve seen the end in distant light

And felt it resonate within my spine

No purity, no sacred flame

No sin untouched by shadow

We orbit lies we name as gods

And call it fate, and call it sign

Your light decays, yet still we kneel

Before the lie we choose as real

In all of us there is a truth

In all of us there is a lie
