Equipoise - Cast into Exile

Текст песни

Oh, this fate was an unforeseen calamity
Dethroned by fleshborn treachery
From a gaping hole in my chest — emissaries outstretch
Pull me back to the void
Back to my genesis
Shrouded silhouettes reach forth, penumbra tearing me particle from particle
Beckoned by the ageless entity to palaver — the failure of my deeds
Why, God, why would you refuse to become one with me
Back to the void
Back to the Truth
Cast into exile
Many names have I — the One, the All, the Truth
They call me God, the World, the Universe, and Atom
For this eve I’ve summoned thee — you who so desperately wanted the all
The plot you sought — the onslaught
Defeated by humanoid squall
Why was my pursuit of the arcane a taboo
I merely sought to know the all to attain the Truth
Dwarf you have not grown beyond your days in the flask
Merely expelled desires and acquired a flesh mask
The power in which you possess was stolen from those you detest
All of that so-called knowledge, such arrogance must be repressed
For those who leave me besotted a special hell there is allotted
A fate truly tailored for your sins — symbolic retribution
Oh, you who have failed to see enlightenment
Outdone by fleshborn quintessence
Behold your barren portal of Truth — bleak with rancor
Once your genesis, now your terminus
Tell me what it was that I was supposed to do
Before I’m bound once more, I’m begging for the Truth
Dwarf you have not grown beyond your days in the flask
Merely expelled desires and acquired a flesh mask
The door to your destiny is open wide
Do you dare to take a look inside
Listen closely for the words on my breath sentence you to a fate worse than
death
You who sought to have it all, condemned to a fate infinitesimal
Banished is your free will, now you shall be a nameless iota that dwells within
me
Dwarf you have not grown beyond your days in the flask
Merely expelled desires and acquired a flesh mask
Listen closely for the words on my breath sentence you to a fate worse than
death
You who sought to have it all, condemned to a fate infinitesimal
Banished is your free will, now you shall be a nameless iota that dwells within
me
