Emperor - The Eruption |
The Eruption
Emperor ...And After Years In Dark Tunnels He Came To Silence There Was Nothing... He Realised That The Cheering Cries Of Worship Reflecting Back At Him From Cold And Naked Walls Were But Echoes Of His Harsh Outspoken Word "From Nothing Came All I Ever Knew" In Hollow Circles Fled Illusions Of Wisdom He Had Heard And He Beheld The RUins Of An Empire Torn Apart Yet, No Grief Nor Rage Did Bind Him By The Emptiness Just Silent And Bewildered He Stumbled Off His Throne Suddenly, The Walls Around Him Cracked Wide Open And An Endless Void Appeared In Flickering, Grey Light "What Force, But Silence, Has Depraved Me Of My Coil? No Trail To Guide Me. No Point Of Refference In Sight" "By Nothing, Resurrection Shall Be Pure" And He Behel The Ruins Just Silent Now Wiping Dust Off His Shoulders Of An Empire Torn Apart In This Emptiness Leaving All Behind Step By Step Past All Past Slowly He Approached The Surface Nothing Left To Sacrifice The Mirrors Mocked Him On The Way |
