Adrift alone I came into being
Formed in the nothing as a lunar mass
Wise as I am, I am not all seeing
I could never have know what would come to pass
That I be not alone, she came in sight
I’ll take my place, her rightful satellite
Astral queen on sunlit throne to escape the void
Come and see life by this wayward asteroid
Planetary alignment a sun is begotten
I could never begin to understand
Nor could I think up a thing so rotten
As the putrid beast that became of man
Astral queen on sunlit thrown to escape the void
Come and see life by this wayward asteroid
Although she loved them so they consumed her flesh
All the pain she endured would end in her death
Hush
Shhh
Wait
Begin
Ripping up the corpse of their beloved mother
Tap the vein and suck the blood to kill each other
On deaf ears now fall the sounds of desperate screaming
From her gaping wounds her life was quickly streaming

As I watch her die
Watched her fade away
I was reminded of what I am
So I wonder why
As my heart grows grey
Back to the void I am damned
Oh the land unmarred
Were our children born
It was a sight to behold
How her face was scarred
And while I mourn
The hearts we bore are cold
Tears shall to turn to rage
Frozen hard as steel
My spirit turns to ice
And so to assuage
The pain I feel
I have one thing to excise
As I watched her die
Watch her body burn
I was reminded of what I am
From the void came I
If I am to return
I’ll share this fate with man
Dark clouds blot out the sky
My son cries out to die
But his soul is frozen in place

Severed sun
In diebus illis quaerent homines
Mortem et non invenient eam
From two frontiers I’ll draw the night
While frozen hands grip tight the knife
Cut it all off and yet still remain alive
Darkness that created me the cradle of my birth
Iron claws that grip to halt the turning of the earth
Glow is gone from heavens star the pale moon starts his reign
In fading light the severed son will slowly go insane
As the mornings dawn will never come
And fathers heart grows ever numb
From the angels touch forever they'll be deprived
Fading is the memory of the mother most sublime
That brought the lives from nothingness of union divine
Severed son is made to feel all the pain as I
And though he cries and begs for death I'll never let him die
In diebus illis quaerent homines Mortem
In diebus illis quaerent homines Mortem
In diebus illis quaerent homines
Mortem et non invenient eam
In diebus illis quaerent homines Mortem
In diebus illis quaerent homines Mortem
In diebus illis quaerent homines
Mortem et non invenient eam
