Through the Eyes of the Hangman

from Endemic Divine by Deivos

/

lyrics

The whistling wind
Moves the swing of life
Eyes closed
Lump in the throat
I's just dyspnea
The priest's soothing voice
My body acts as a pendulum
The pendulum swings by the juggler's whisper
Reject the earthly life
Reject the life itself
Eyes closed, a shade of light
Distorted vision, hallucination?
Don't open your eyes
For they shall be tainted
Hear the whisper
Of the wise man in black
Nothing but toil ahead of you
It's safe up here
In the cradle of your dreams
Eyelids slowly torn apart
The sun hurts the eyes
But it's just candlelight
The fields of hands reaching the light
Harvested by the reapers of this rite
The air from the lungs is gone
I try to fight, to scream
Yet the support of reality
Is removed from under my feet
I descend into darkness
Embraced by its cold arms
And I know it's everything
The life has to offer
Don't open your eyes
For they shall be tainted
Hear the whisper
Of the wise man in black
Nothing but toil ahead of you
It's safe up here
In the cradle of your dreams
