The darkness approaches
On the wings of steel we fly towards it, with a purpose
Our souls are one with the heart of our craft
As it is cradling us. We hear its whispers in our dreams.
Each and every one of us was born for that purpose alone
To go blindly on an infinite quest of knowledge
Guided by the ancestral visions of greatness and conquest
In the songs of the ancients we grow.
The weak shall be purged by their inner demons
The fragile minds crushed to bloody dust
For the realms of nightmares prey on those
Whose consciousness and morals are impure.
The gates of the dream realms are opened
We rush toward a dim, flickering light
In the far distance a portal can be seen
The delicate shape made of marble bone.
The craft of the forefathers that has
Sheltered us for so long
Is rushing towards the final destination of our quest
As we pierce the veil of the doorway our guide awakens
His third eye shines now, guiding the ark to the other side.
Upon arrival we see the place where hopes of millions
Are lost
In the impossibly vast field of decay and entropy
Millions of empty husks of the leviathan that came
Here before us
They float, the hearts, once strong, now so still,
The spirits cold.
The center of the system is close now as we cross
The depths of space
Leaving behind the cemetery of those that failed
In their quest
At last the vision appears of what has been waiting
For us all along
The black star shines in the center so clearly
Drawing us in.
The dark sun, the primal force of entropy and unlife
The central focus and the axis of the universe
Is within our reach now
The black light shines upon our craft, as we start the ritual
The blood flows freely, the energy is given and swallowed.
The icons of destruction, the symbols of dissolution
Are raised up high
The eyes weep crimson, the mouths chant
In the forbidden tongue
Hail to thee, the harbringer of the end !
Oh, black sun, rise in your dreaded glory !
