The Man Who Killed God Lyrics


Realm of death

Black and red

Without grass

Tree or bird

Life avoids

Serpent-death

All but one

Ill-starred man

Riddle me this, who am I?

What is vengeance on the witness?

Pity overcomes the pitiless

At the sight of the ugliest man

Great despiser, persecuted

Murderer of the divine

He treads heavy the darkest paths

Paths to great destruction and death

The one with eyes who beheld all

Beheld with pity the ugliest

Corners of the darkest mind

Immodestly, he had to die

Omniscient witness should not exist

Declaring his truth an absolute

Pity offends those with pride

Love thyself as thou despise

A measure of love in great contempt

A longing for the farthest shore

In divine death there is life

A chance to begin again
