The Light Will Desert Us Lyrics


Enclosed within the obsidian nocturnal shell, so vast

A spirit left to wander a frozen waste, so cold

Look to the furthest point in the open sky, to the great empty void

Where the ghosts all congregate, do you hear?

They are calling us home, to the depths of outer space.

Soundless voice in an inky black sea

Its surface is silent now, take me back to that sacred realm

All will be silent

My voice an echo in the mist, in decay

All lost forever

A starlit trail through endless sky

Please, forgive me I don't know why this is

It's all falling apart, the pieces fall away

All will be silent once more

All will descend into nothing

As my body decays, I feel my organs oozing a black substance

I am one with the stars,

My putrid rot erased by the cleansing dark

It's all falling away

My guts a meat machine network

Why am I so afraid?

Nothing will endure the wrath of a wretched world

I sink into the ground

Bleached by the sun, rotting in the daylight

Into a world with no sound

I will find peace in the crust of this planet

Don't follow me to that place

It's my sanctum, where I waste

No comfort, no purpose

The light will desert us

Look to the furthest point in the open sky, to the great empty void

Where the ghosts all congregate, do you hear?

They are calling us home, to the depths of outer space.

Soundless voice in an inky black sea

Its surface is silent now, take me back to that sacred realm

All will be silent once more

All will descend into nothing
