Lyrics
O ye powerless terrified things
O ye who sees only death in time
I pity thee, denier, abolisher
Whose form is but refusals and rejections
Of the sacred!
To look at the face of time
Is to confront the horror of endless annihilation
Cyclical endless death
A purely rational man is an abstraction
He strives to reinvent himself
As a series of denials and negations
Do what he will he is but an inheritor
All space is homogenous void
No fixed point, no centre
Your world is but scattered fragments
Of a shattered, broken universe
You will never feel the power of the sublime
No blooming dawn, nor bleeding dusk, shall move you
The majesty of the moon and the sun
The stillness of the trees
Shall give you no satisfaction
Once you are stripped of the sacred
Once youโve killed the last god
For all your life is a quest to find meaning
A pattern to the universe
A sign within your cosmos
You-You are doomed for all time
You-You yearn helplessly for a god
