We are idle hands to knot and weave
The severed web of continuity
We live with nurtured seeds of doubt
But true knowledge blossoms for the dead
Gnosis, it eludes our grasp
Lost in the aeons, forced into retreat
Wretchedness prevails
All enigma is untold
Epistemology of the passed
Old conundrums to unfold
We dwell in secrets, doomed to last
All enigma is untold
Epistemology of the passed
Old conundrums to unfold
Tragedy and loss amassed
Gnosis, it eludes our grasp
Lost in the aeons, forced into retreat
Wretchedness prevails
In this day and age of blindness
What light shall guide our way
What lance will pierce this veil
What truthful words remain?
With gnosis laid to rest
Flown into somber night,
In realms of death,
Truth resides.
