Citadel of hope and white fire Hearken, a choir for kings, transcendence Crowned in teeth and severed wings Is this the end of, the end of the flesh? My prison and my salvation Call from the void, pale tentacles Enthroned, alone, dying Down with my draped leeches, oh lover Melancholia You fill my lungs Am I undone? Where I swallow the light Drown me in your arms, so deep Drown me in your arms Abyssal wyrmwell Fathomless Drown me in your arms Anatomy of space and time Gathered in veiled depths, descendant Are these god's tears in this pitch black tomb Or the pain of my memories? Of all suffering awake architects The mother, the father, the eye Trumpets bellow, the ripples transfigure Wretched am I White eyes and blue lips Lover, devour me Drown me in your arms Abyssal wyrmwell Fathomless Drown me in your arms Drown me in your arms Abyssal wyrmwell Fathomless A burning gauntlet held to her breast In her arms the phoenix lay blackened in mourning A purging of ashes down her hourglass figure Inscribed on my heart: "devour me, colossus" Scent of the earth Touch of the light Here, where colours collide This black hole ignites Oh, my world in bloom Flesh to flowers Blood to rivers My breath to the wind The stars steal my eyes And the sun sears my mind This black hole ignites My world in bloom Here I stand, citadel Here I stand Here, where colours collide This black hole ignites My world in bloom Scent of the earth Touch of the light Here, where colours collide This black hole ignites My world in bloom My world in bloom In bloom
