Burnt out necropolis Sinking fire sear dead Second traitor soul powerless Resist those who would silence Remove the wrappings Which fetter my mouth In empty aching vessel Stop time decay Feel like fire dying A voice but no words An eternity but no soul Give me voice withered lips Shattered teeth forced with bitter iron Hiss of escaping last gasp Cult like mortician knife All that remains is remains Void turns in wheel Turning slowly in the starless dust never Like western lights Sinking and spluttering I am now fading Body rot in the row Caught in pull of time Suffering second final death alone I am alone And empty like a tomb of archaic years Where is the beast who shut out the light? Left in the dark of incomplete empty The powerless flesh atrophy in stone casket I am alone, abandoned I am become death Take leering golden jackal Take from tortured vision Saliva drip from jaws Breath from middens Footprints of slime on pathway to Duat Where is the power Cut string marionette Turn back those who would restrain me Bound hands reach for neck of Jackal Merge of past and future Sprint machine fail Remove the wrappings Which fetter my mouth In empty aching vessel Stop time decay I am alone I am abandoned I am powerless I am become death
