[ti: If Eternity Should Fail]
[length: 08:28]
[00:20.53]Here is the soul of a man
[00:24.09]Here in this place for the taking
[00:28.38]Clothen in white
[00:31.17]Stand in the light
[00:34.46]Here is the soul of a man
[00:39.48]
[00:57.90]Time to speak with the shaman again
[01:04.32]
[01:11.23]Conjure the jester again
[01:16.75]Black dog in the ruins is howling my name
[01:22.26]So here is the soul of a man
[01:27.19]
[01:39.09]When the world was virgin
[01:42.99]
[01:51.68]Before the coming of man
[01:53.60]Just a solemn witness
[01:55.69]The beginning of the end
[01:57.96]From a world of magma
[01:59.94]To a cold rock face
[02:01.99]The ascent of madness
[02:03.79]And the human race
[02:13.73]We are strange believers
[02:16.00]All of us
[02:18.46]There are stranger truths
[02:20.49]In molten rust
[02:22.57]We rise from slumber
[02:24.49]It calls our name
[02:26.54]Recalls our number
[02:28.40]How bad we come
[02:38.41]Reefing a sail on the edge of the world
[02:44.22]
[02:48.79]If eternity should fail
[02:53.21]Waiting in line for the ending of time
[02:56.52]If eternity should fail
[03:01.70]Reefing a sail on the edge of the world
[03:04.73]If eternity should fail
[03:09.45]Waiting in line for the ending of time
[03:12.80]If eternity should fail
[03:17.07]
[03:22.22]To God’s illusion
[03:25.47]
[03:28.22]Which I recall
[03:30.45]Was our delusion
[03:32.42]Before the fall
[03:34.66]The angels come
[03:36.50]And angels go
[03:38.69]But the lord of light
[03:40.45]Shining below
[03:49.78]Eternal blackness
[03:52.59]Beyond the stars
[03:54.85]We think our wisdom
[03:56.94]Will get that far
[03:59.04]At the master’s table
[04:00.94]The table’s bare
[04:03.04]No line of plenty
[04:05.08]Devastation, despair
[04:21.44]Reefing a sail on the edge of the world
[04:25.81]If eternity should fail
[04:29.87]Waiting in line for the ending of time
[04:33.32]If eternity should fail
[04:37.83]Reefing a sail on the edge of the world
[04:41.54]If eternity should fail
[04:46.06]Waiting in line for the ending of time
[04:49.57]If eternity should fail
[04:53.85]
[05:31.59]Reefing a sail on the edge of the world
[05:36.42]
[06:12.28]If eternity should fail
[06:15.82]Waiting in line for the ending of your time
[06:19.52]If eternity should fail
[06:23.88]Reefing a sail on the edge of the world
[06:27.68]If eternity should fail
[06:32.20]Waiting in line for the ending your time
[06:35.80]If eternity should fail
[06:39.96]Reefing a sail on the edge of the world
[06:43.53]If eternity should fail
[06:48.46]Waiting in line for the ending of time
[06:51.82]If eternity should fail
[06:56.25]Reefing a sail on the edge of the world
[06:59.55]If eternity should fail
[07:04.38]Waiting in line for the ending of time
[07:07.77]If eternity should fail
[07:12.37]
[07:29.96]Good day
[07:32.66]
[07:35.37]My name is necropolis
[07:38.56]I am formed of the dead
[07:41.52]I am the harvester of the soul
[07:45.91]And I suck the lives from my bed
[07:51.95]I own two sons, I gave them breath
[07:56.44]And I fill their living corpses with my bile
[08:02.58]What humanity I knew I have long forgotten
[08:09.25]For me, eternity is nothing but a short while
