The Knives of Transience Lyrics


(Music by Kosmos Reversum & Lord J. H. Psycho

Lyrics by Lord J. H. Psycho)

Another night pours through me its hours of molten lead

The undertow of anguish washed my eyes clean of sleep

Throughout these corridors resounds the chill of woes unsaid

A haunting absence dogs my steps around my wakeful keep

And if the morning never came

And if the stars froze in their trails

For me it all would be the same

Here where acquiescence prevails

The paleness of shadows trickles through my soul

Moments forlorn bead a web of unseen scars

I sift through jaded fragments that never built a whole

Between a past and future that never felt so far

Destiny was just another lie

Peace means never pining to know why

And there are times I’d give up everything

To be freed from awareness if just for a short while

Yet to this double-edged knowledge I still cling

For nothing else would guide me along this draining trial

Disconnected, a superimposed projection

This is how the transparent disappear

White letters on white pages

Scattered verses of whispers and whirlwinds
