  § Chains of £mbrace §

  ________________________________________________________

  ƒrom pride to remorse, sudden is not this journey

    Existence in denial, fools impede on fate’s path

  Flair and strength abundant, yet you pay no heed

  From hubris to humility, a lifetime lasts this course

   

  A mind of gripping resolve, blinding veil before the eyes

  Razing the scent of death, muffled the screams of night

  Forever chasing wyrms of knowledge, we thus starve our sanity

   Men of shrouded cunning, (one day) bound to crush the fool’s vanity

   

  From contempt to defeat, O’ how effortless this shift

  Kneel before truth’s mercy, as powerless heart craves death

  For so long savoring triumph, despair stings you with frostbite

  From certainty to collapse you see, no more but flashes of lightning

   

  A crusader of illusion’s play, lies rotten in chains of embrace

  Aching bones appalled by pain, yet power rises in your stomach

   Open gates of rebirth beckon, your humanity starves to death

  O’ vile creature of misery behold, time cradles you once again

   

  From mortality, man learns to count his days
  When days flow cold as his blood, he becomes immortal
