Time is fleeting
Asleep but still breathing
We're all in keeping
With death and his thoughts
They surround me
I'm blind, yet I still see
I glare at the unseen
This time, I must let go

Into you, I will fall
Deeper still, I will crawl

Love is fading
With all my daydreams
Flying, cascading
Just a momentary loss
I lay still
Dark clouds are coming
Closing, suffocating
What have I become?

From the weaving hands of fate
All of the beauty must die

Keep breathing, keep dreaming
Don't leave me behind
Keep breathing, keep sleeping
Keep beauty waking

Wretched soul of mine
Empty shell entwined
Mortal coil unleashed
Septic wounds diseased

Your misanthropy
My lycanthropy
Two in one combined
The death toll will climb

As death enraptures me
And God forsakes thee
Lucifer comes to me
Laughing as Jesus bleeds

For this lost empire
Alight my funeral pyre
The ash and oak will burn
For we will never learn

We will falter in these hours
For we're frail and withering flowers

In the dark I wait for her to cut the rope
My hands are tied

I will falter in these hours
For I'm frail and sick with patience

Ask the witches why the cry
All the beauty must die

From the weaving hands of fate
All of the beauty must die
