The first revelation
split my skull
Time was never a river
It was a graveyard of truths.
The past never died
It feeds beneath the present
Rotting memories claw upward
Through the marrow of existence
Every second still screaming
Every sin still awakes
The universe is a carcass
That refuses to decay
I touched the corpse of yesterday
And it answered my hand
Every memory opened
Like a mouth full of knives
Time does not flow
It festers a wound in the flesh of reality
God promised eternity
But eternity is rot.
Past and future nailed together
On the black cross of eternity
God promised eternity
But eternity is rot.
Memory is not merci
It is contact with the dead
Every thought is a summoning
Every dream is a crypt
Memory is not merci
It is a touch of the dead
Every thought is a summoning
Every dream a tomb in my head
Nothing fades.
Nothing leaves.
And eternity…
is the blasphemy.
Nothing grows
Nothing dies
And your mind
makes you feel the lies
Childhood howled beside tomorrow
Dead seconds crawled through my veins
All moments collapsing together
In a cathedral of pain
Time does not flow
It festers a wound in the flesh of reality
There is no salvation
Only accumulation.
Past and future nailed together
On the black cross of eternity
There is no salvation
Only accumulation.
Memory is not merci
It is contact with the dead
Every thought is a summoning
Every dream is a crypt
Memory is not merci
IT is a touch of the dead
Every thought is a summoning
Every dream a tomb in my head
