Sirens of Black-Neaera

On my path to self - destruction I passed a source of hope And on fear and hate i choked On my path to isolation I walked the fields of nowhere In a valley of false salvation I breathed despair If you aim for the source You must swim against the grain On my path to self -illusion I bowed to standards And from the truth within i fled On my path of self -surrender I denied the I And without teeth or spine I tried to survive Sirens of Black Evoke the abyss from its fathomless depth Benighted we stand A spectre of fear and lies in our hands From carpets of unbroken glass Phoenix will never arise If you aim for the source You must swim against the grain What you have in you You can't extract - only reconcile On my quest for peace of mind I almost lost my anger And in a stream of cynic I float Sirens of Black Evoke the abyss from its fathomless depth Benighted we stand A spectre of fear and lies in our hands
