fen - monuments to absence lyrics
architects of what we sow
architects of what we reap
architects of what we know
architects of what we seek
look around
cast a bloodshot, stunned gaze upon
a midden+strew woescape
and know emptiness
and know ennui
and know the bitter sorrow of
all+consuming abandonment
resplendent
empty
megalithic
these colossal, tragic monuments to absence
that cast feeble shadows onto
the lifeless wastes around them
what once were shining temples
now debasеd by a fathomless hunger
strangled in dеcaying and warped spectres
of wisdom long since befouled
the besmirched wreckage of prophecy
stifling…corrupting…choking…
and again, i implore thee
as stagnant, sanguine ichor fills my eyes
as bleak tears stain a wretched visage
as if holding a mirror to this vignette
guardian tombs to shepherd the meek
palatial vaults to avarice speak
glittering realms + hubris and disdain
to ash and dust and waste + revelation’s stain
look upon
these sad bastions of emptiness
these colossal, tragic monuments to absence
stood unmoving + a ghastly facsimile of stoicism
steeped in the echoes of pride now collapsed
and growing fainter with each dying
second towards blessed oblivion
