Saturnine

(album: DAMNUM - 2022)

Forevermore into the light of a star that will never dawn

Woe
In separation from the earth I've grown alone
Emancipating myself from the grasp of this mortal coil
Soulless
Breathing but barely living as days tire on
Joyless actions preceding the oncoming squall

On I go
So nothing more need be told, to do so is pointless
My own story goes into the void
Into the void

Forevermore into the light of a star that will never dawn
Open closing tomes onto hands that are begging for warmth
Forevermore into the night under stars that will never fall
Open closing hope on the hands that are breaking and falling down

No more
Poison slowly coats the wound
No more
Engulfed in horror, sealed inside the tomb

Like ruins sleeping for the ages:
Now so do I
Exhausting options
Left with naught but what is obvious

Into oblivion
I peer into the deep
And finally see the reckoning that waits for me
Forevermore

Into the night, into the light of a star that will never dawn
Open closing tomes onto hands that are begging for warmth
Forevermore into the night under stars that will never fall
Open, closing, choking on hope and the bones of tomorrow

Forevermore
Into the light of a star that will never dawn
Open closing tomes onto hands that are begging for warmth
Forevermore into the night under stars that will never fall
Open closing hope on the hands that are breaking and falling down

Open closing tomes onto hands that are begging for warmth
Open, closing, choking on hope and the bones of tomorrow
