Horology 歌词

Once upon a time There was a great hermit dominion Veiled from inside and out Ruled by a lone eremite Bringer of an inferno Controller to satan himself To tchort, abaddon, and set A demented figurehead Heinous looking thing, he was Cold and terrible A long and aquiline nose Between swelling temples His green eyes are windows To the ninth circle of hell A tiny neck supporting a head Filled with an unending desolation Seditious bands storm the bastion Alive with revenge Grand intentions Unbeknownst protomartyrs Indoctrinated With impalement Just like that the plot was crushed Brushed away without a thought Some were found alive, though Left to run without their skin Cauterized and blistering Forever marked for all to see Reminding those who think dissent Is a bridge across the sea One did make a pilgrimage In search of a family Evaporated in the dark Stolen by the despot A journey made all the worse Having had his eyes gouged He left without the gift of sight To face his true destroyer Across the land he walked with death Parading his Ossuary Upon reaching the castle walls A twist of fate His mind opens Sit down weary traveler I am that what you seek Join me in a meal To hear of my repentance Lift the veil from your eyes And look beyond the three Now you know the truth behind It's tetrachromacy
