The moments' repose Awoke eyes of ice In vision froze, froze The melting world All is around But within is barren, is barren
Drying the water Anchor me in ice Mirror of the reaper The arrow of my eyes
Slow, beating pendulum Don't measure time I'll sink the heavens While reaching for the dawn
Seven eyes sewn open, bestow As Above, So Below Water mirrors and the stillness grows Into Seven more (Unseeing) The bondage throne
The waves that shore Two thirsty hands Sewing a needle of blood To bind me To bind me Weaving the ocean
Through which I flood The heaven of blood To bind me I'm bound to Waves The waves of no shore Floods that sleeve The reach of the drought To bleed evermore
Empty me Empty me Ash of the ocean (Sewing) To bind me (Sewing needle of drought) To bind me (Weaving) Weaving the ocean (Weaving pendulum)
Hanging, weaving the ground A breathless fabric of floating ashes Tied, and then rewound
Reigned (Weaved in the needle) The cycle turns around Air, burnt to ashen mountains (Weaving the ground) Swimming underground Pendulum Silent gavel (Of time) It's burning in the sky
Be not where you lay Lest the bond be broken Vanish where you stay Timeless in the well Lest the song is spoken Over for the sell
Eye of the cold Will scald in the fold Higher than low
Dripping from the scene Lest the scalding ocean Is drowning all the trees Time to fall this cell Know the name of harrowed With it you'll do well
The crane that only felt Was never seen as spoken Its vanished from my self The tame you would arise Formulate the harrowed Vanish in the eye Vanish in the eyes Vanish from the skies
The stain that only sees Crawl like rain Is only left through harrowed For disdain When practiced at the dream
When nothing left to see Naught to feign Call the name upon this floor Nor to drain Know that it is more And opened in the shallows
None for sane When nothing could be more But for more When nothing could be more Burn the core You see the final shore
From before Bleed beyond the poor Last of lore Drip upon the floor Seen as more Vanish for the more Told it well
Called beyond the well Then tore the shell Led beyond the chill When nothing held Stone the Moon as well But something fell For which you could have found
Float the Moon as well Float the Moon as well
All who strayed beyond the shadows Have nothing to disdain All that soared away from reason Were held aloft in sway All that's widening the narrows Will crumble to decay
Lie of the sold (Lie of the sold) Would warm in the cold Desire will hold
If the motion Lied and light had froze Might of the fever Hold my eyes to know
Dry the waves Anchor ice Mirror reaper Arrowed eyes
An ice of pieces Of what was once there The skin of being Flayed as though The air
Dry the land Anchor sand Mirror reaper Gallows stand Slow the heart Still the tide Sink the heavens From the sky
All that laid upon This hallowed yet crumbling domain All who strayed beyond the shadows Have nothing to disdain
This cycle thus froze When seeking a repose The thawing of peace Drips backward to the freeze Now motion lies still With naught left for the kill A fever long boiled And venom to recoil
The pendulum slowed Then stilled under the cold In absence he flies In presence we will writhe
