Amber Dusk Lyrics by Judicator

Let There Be Nothing

2020

Failure follows every step
And here’s the last leap that I took
Again, no punishment, just like Callinicum
For months we’ve withstood Gothic siege
We’re hanging on by a thread
All of these new recruits we’ve pressed, they are not prepared
And yet I saw it fit to try to test their mettle
Blessed am I, standing aright
Gazing upon the fields below
So many times I could have died
Why am I preserved?
Cursed am I, turning away
Gazing upon the streets below
I see her once again with him
Antonina smiles
I call the men to arms and shout, “O stavros nika!”
We sweep into the fields beyond
The battle is raging
The new recruits had pushed them back, but chose not to pursue
Instead they chose to loot the camps
This cost us victory
Amber dusk
Again, it happened once again
It burns, shredding my heart, oh it burns
Again, I’ll have to blame the men
Report they pressured me into the fight
Now recalled to Syria, he took upon himself a new restraint
With shepherd-like protectiveness he’d guide his men to fight the Sassanids
His young step-son Photius meanwhile was stationed in the capital
And there he saw his mother and Theodosius renew their love affair
O spider mother, while you’re at play Belisarius fights off invaders
And yet you soil your husband’s bed with another man
I’m yours no more
Photius rode to tell the man who took him as a son that he had been betrayed
The rolling hills of Syria are black against the glorious, ember-laden sunset
Step by step he strode and knelt before the man
There I spoke it all, and after, silence fell
After much endured, the man had finally broke
As darkness falls
Belisarius turns ‘round to face his step-son
As darkness falls
His heart is hardened – no more could he now endure
As darkness falls
The two embraced and swore to uproot the decay
As darkness falls
The two declared this mire of sin would be drained
