Like a hawk, I swoop down on your countenance

Like a shadow I immolate your soul

Like knowledge I cloud your mind

Like a priest I make you harden your heart

A philosopher at the end of the universe

A crown of spearheads on my head

Human! King of all kings!

My morgenstern is called freedom

In shards of stained glass I read the false past

I kindle the torch of knowledge tonight

I am the end, the light and the dark

I am the flame

I burn and hurt your eyes

I am a lone wolf

The enemy of the meek

I am the firebrand

The mark on a leather-bound book

Exultant I look forward to the coming of dawn

Which has everything and remains alone

Arrows are shot into the darkness

The night illuminates with stars

Blinded by the cosmic light

I do not seek redemption

I’m here to kindle desires

And show you that fear is a handful of ash
