Litany Lyrics by Bleached Cross

Columns of Impenetrable Light

0

Crossing the aeons and attempting to read the ruins
I find a charnel house filled with pictures of you
I lay down on the altar
And stare at the flames
Flickering candles whisper your name

I try to fall asleep but I'm punished by memories of your pale eyes
I long to know the peace;
The cold comfort of my dreams-
But they won't bring you back to life

It would always end this way
Through different lives and times
Destiny, the figures in here tell me, cannot be changed
They beckoned, and i came
So we could be together again (in this house i will burn)
I've always burned for you

Slowly i raise my head
Now i know what must be done
Shattering the votives
The figures dissipate as the inferno grows
Do you feel the fire?
For me, it's always this way
But in this room of death we will become one:
Self-immolation

I try to fall asleep but I'm punished by memories of your pale eyes
I long to know the peace;
The cold comfort of my dreams
But they won't bring you back to life
As the flames rise
And i become carbonized
Let me escape the pain
From feeling my soul bleed
