A Stare Bound in Stone Lyrics by At the Gates

To Drink from the Night Itself

2018

[Verse 1]
Through the fall of creation
A death mask transforms the past
The contours of a labyrinth emerge

[Pre-Chorus]
As dusk, it clings to silent stone
Dead to all future generations

[Chorus]
Let their strength now dissolve
The sun to me is dark forever
A nihilistic urge
As death thickens in their throats

[Post-Chorus]
Like fragments of silent fires
Like fragments of silent fires

[Verse 2]
The distorted hierarchies
Under boiling clouds
A cold stare, bound in stone
Behind the curtain of dust

[Pre-Chorus]
As dusk, it clings to silent stone
Immortalizing the suppression

[Chorus]
Let their strength now dissolve
The sun to me is dark forever
A nihilistic urge
As death thickens in their throats

[Bridge]
Featureless, elusive
Drowning in the silent black
Obsession like wildfire inhaled

Featureless, elusive
Drowning in the silent black
Obsession like wildfire inhaled

[Outro]
Like fragments of silent fires
Like fragments of silent fires
Like fragments of silent fires
Like fragments of silent fires
Like fragments of silent fires
