An Honest Shape of Man Lyrics


Find thy way back to the light

From asylums of death

Return from where rootless warriors rest

Prophecy etched in thy mind

A purpose to know the curse of all mankind

Claim thy fate

Lest we fade in flame forever

Chase the charms

However shattered or elusive

Yearn for warmth

Unaware of its grand illusion

Reach thy hand and sacrifice

Surrender all that is you a thousand times

Stoke the lie

Burn thy soul again to hold humanity

And soon the flames fade

With thy mind

Whilst thou forget thy name?

This Darksign

Claim thy fate

Lest we all should fade

Forget thy name

Lost, shattered

Chase the charms of illusion

Betwixt the planes of life and death

I've carved my shape so hollow

I've lost my link with fire

Most honest shape of man

I bid thee life-starved and ye fateless

Embrace the darkness

And so it is that ash seeks flame

Prop on the stage of life

A soul to burn

To wane in fire until the end
