Black Jewel Lyrics by Sanguinarius

Sin Astra

2024

[Verse 1]
Growing older, spreading thin
Fools will tell ya, "Lose to win" (yeah)
Time is foldin', warns the skin
Drop the load and learn to sin
[Verse 2]
Go through the motions, forget the oath
No ablutions for this soul
Stab the memory, twist it slow
Look in its eyes and let it know
But it’s got daggers of its own
That slice and sever to the bone
Arched and waiting, prime to go
Looks in your eyes and lets you know
It has a way of catching up
The world you've made is not enough, no
Found the jewel from above
Saw the face and remembered
[Verse 3]
Whеn I was young, I thought the universe was on my sidе
Seems all your angels left you once they couldn't stand the sight
Futility will follow me until the end of life
I lost the only chance I had to see just what’s inside
[Verse 4]
Was my failure mere mistake, or long reflected in fate's well?
(Replied my shadow, "You never had a chance in hell")
Was I ever good enough, or is this stuff for dreams to sell?
(Again, my shadow, "You never had a chance in hell")
Is it worse to be this cursed with lesser luck or a lesser self?
(Again, the shadow, "You never had a chance in hell")
Will I ever have the strength or the ability to tell?
(And then the shadow,) "You had the chance then blew it all to hell"
