The Voiceless Dust of Ages Lyrics


I am a fallen tile from the roof of heaven

broken in pieces on the floor of hell

I am the voiceless dust of ages

an echo of death that none can quell

Grave digger, worm killer, death piper, shaman

Ghost dancing corpse, on wind pulled string

Now I’m alone in a deep dark hole

lost in a pit with a worm & a song

lost in a pit below, lost in a pit below

lost in a pit with a worm & a song alone

buried dreams rot, buried dreams rot, buried dreams rot

lost in a pit with a worm & a song

Hell, war & ash - burning

Hell, war & ash - searing

Hell, war & ash - smoking

Hell, war & ash - scorching

Hell, war & ash - gleaming

Hell, war & ash - glowing

Echoes of death I hear voices of yesteryear

I’m....blind to wander in mists unclear

Will I see the night again

forever lost in never-ending dark descending, unrelenting nothingness

spinning, whirling,

Suffocate in coffin dust

choke on ash and human soot

we become the stifled air

to rise and fall like frayed moth wings

frayed moth wings

frayed moth wings

splintering into emptiness

Lost in a pit with a worm and a song

counting the cost when its all fucking gone

wallowing deathly sallow throng

to fade to ash where I belong

iron and rust is all that’s left

haunting shades of emptiness

to melt into eternal rest

a slave of sleep at times behest
