alburnum - a veil of darkness upon my ancestral home lyrics

Loading...

sprung from the womb upon this earth
a wretched, misshapen being
stabbed in the side to replenish my blood
and laid bare for all to see
this i see in the halls of my mind
as i return to where it all began

i choke on dust and ancient grey cobwebs
as my lantern lights my path
gone from god and from the world
cursed from birth and all existence
not dying, already dead and decayed
for i am a ghost that calls itself a man

ghosts of family reach out to me to drag me below
they whisper to me what i always feared and always havе known
it follows me to wherevеr in life i may go
this veil of darkness upon my ancestral home

save me!

i set foot on the ancient grounds where i stood as a child
before the weight of reality descended upon me
and just like mother called us for dinner
i hear my ancestors calling me home
arms of ghostlike essence surround me
i feel their spirits course through my soul
no god in heaven answers my prayers
i hear my ancestors calling me home

long dead faces swirl all around me
i see their fates are entwined with my own
no god in heaven answers my prayers
i hear my ancestors calling me home

voices echo out through the ages
finding me anywhere i dare to roam
no god in heaven answers my prayers
i hear my ancestors calling me home

i begin to see what’s wrong with me, this curse on my soul
always part of me, of what i’ve been, and what i’ll become
and it follows me to wherever in life i may go
this veil of darkness upon my ancestral home
