lyrics

So again in this spiral
Where pain needn't be denied
The pendulum comes ever lower
I am come to the gate of silence

And feel them bending over me
Watching my trembling fingers
Waves rush to paint in me black
Creasing the surface, so soft and yet adamantine
Silver, as Moon above her lingers

Relinquishment rides the plaices
Into the depths

Suddenly a flame-tongue licks the time
And sand in hourglass begins to flow
And through the glass i clearly saw myself
Like a black scrap waving in the distance

The sea, crownless by the foam,
Begs me for reticence
Raising a sand tomb for my toes

Now I see, they are cracked
As they tried to reflect
Me
Now they shrink before me
Or have I risen above their tops?
Shaping them with bare hands

Finally Sun breaks that silence
Scorches edge of the cliffs red
And with such irresistible violence
Catches the ocean into a sparkling net
And through the mouth of timesnake
I leave this cosmic gate

And as I feel the shift of blades
Inside my arms
The pain is denied.
