Eternal Golden Monk

(album: Måsstaden - 2011)

You are here, the bringer of despair and privation
No need to be discreet in your actions
You come forth from distant soil where you are a stranger
And then you ended up far from home in exile
We greet you decent, since you are not here to stay
You're a passenger indulging in our misery
And as we try to seek your ends, our means are to distract
You will not see the reasons, because they are hidden well

Doubtfulness is for the weak
Such kind is the lone deranger
Is unforgiveness what you seek?
Then you are marked a stranger

We misdirect your sight
And feed you with decoy
You smile and think you know it all
And we will play along
Let us be and walk your way
Remember what you have seen
And tell everyone of this wretched place
Your words will speak of all my dreams

When you reach perfection
You know decline is on its way to bring you down
When you are asleep
You know I'm always awake and ready to bring you down

I know your wounds still burn
And I know you will leave when the winds turn
When the winds turn, it brings dissonance into the sky

Drift like clouds, and flow like water
Rage like a fire to turn all things black
Become one with the void
