Hole in the sky Flames rain down Black ash like snow Eyes reflect Cracking of the heavens Prayers now mute Ancients scattered Heads of the almighty Washed up on our shores Hold the cosmos no more That promise of salvation Now sunk in the sand Vast oceans reabsorb Humans stand on the cliffs Fields of unknown Prophecies never foretold This day This doom This hell Man faces his eternity Standing alone
2.
Black clouds scrape the horizon Saints swing on a chain Walls of rain unleashed the river As mothers drowned in tears Razor marks tell a story Gouged in skin and wood Wrote our entire history Ran in rills of blood Flies dance across my eyes Dragging the lost days Ghosts of a new horizon Those voices beneath the waves Cast adrift on drowned streets Not a drop left in my veins Bury me in cold black mud Where all my brothers lay Rains Bleed the days All Washed away
3.
Poison dreams My bones rattle and shake That haunted face All those mirrors lie Pull the strings Unravel my skin Rictus grin Lost soul laid bare How does a man Give up his ghost Eternal sleep Always out of reach Sea of graves Haul me away In my disgrace They howl my name
4.
Dying is easy Dying's so easy When you're already dead Demons all my own Fought 'em all those years Haul that stone Visions of graves Visions of graves She goes black Slow death Bottom of the bottle Blind my eyes Darkness shines bright Darkness shines bright Lost in plain sight Hellhound on my trail Never saw him there The dead die hard King of nothing Lowly king of nothing Only good as a martyr She weeps no more And so I go Falling down like hail
5.
No secrets of time The land is all they know Old bones speak the truth Too long in desolation fields The ‘bearer marks each fall Whispers of songs among stones If the gods are in man Then take these ghosts Lay down in unholy ground No plague like madness That slow turning screw Howls inside the walls Men drowned in drink Women claw at the soil Stained eyes on a setting sun And the ‘bearer stood Shouting at the sea “Take this body I throw at thee”

Obsidian Sky 04:46
Hammers sing A chorus of nails Crows on a wire Old man slavin’ On black box walls Over a nameless grave Don’t spare the rod For a devil’s son Eye for an eye Hear that music? Each sin a nail Go cast your stone Obsidian sky Over darkened hills Crows a-callin’ Deluge of rain Won’t wash away Blood on my hands Noose grows tight As the world grows dark Over a nameless grave Old man slavin’ Black box home Crows fly away
