blinded by faith - a slumber in cobwebs lyrics
confined to our fortifications,
besieged by a horde of berserk wolves,
we rapidly ran out of food
and sought an armistice …
the plague of famine had undermined our will,
n-bles and plebs were all dead or ill,
our wall was transformed into a trap
and the barbarians were invading our burg
with blaze, pillaging and murder.
i’ve seen the marble dyed
with blood of lackeys, of plotters
of obsequious, rouged harlots;
i’ve ever sen the blood of my parents
squirt scarlet on their purple garments…
somber harbinger …
the nettle of fear ate into my heart
so i took refuge in the bowels of the castle,
lest i fall under their fierce ire
somewhere down this bottomless sewer
i think i’ve discovered
a disused torture chamber
or else all these cadavers
i’ve encountered were my predecessors…
vomitive miasmas are polluting my being
the lurid stench obstructs my breathing
ugh…
” shall i lick the sweat of rocks
or crunch the dregs of insects
to quench my thirst and silence my hunger? ”
here, my torch perishes
and i stride a threshold
groping along in a gloomy room …
it’s an underground den covered with vermin
have you ever felt your name
carved in the wood of your tomb?
in this occult crypt rot my forefathers
i must -ssume my fate …
rigor mortis, i greet thee in my members
and wait to lack oxygen, to faint…
sn-tch me, thanathos, end my disgrace
and solemn, your slumber, i’ll embrace
for now my sorrows plough an extinct inferno
