lyrics

I am the creator
What I create can not be seen
What I create can not be heard
What I create can not be felt

My creation is a nothingness
outside the borders of human existence
When spoken my name is silence
When seen my image is emptiness

I am the creator
And the focus of my creation
Like the boundaries of my will
Is cosmos and beyond


So upon the arrival into this realm
I went out to explore
I lifted my head and screamed into the night
I felt one with the stars

And I saw only the stars
Illuminated tears under the black silk
The eternal night like a shroud
Of cold air-free vastness

And when travelling under the stars
Through the vacuum of human history
I saw in front of me
A mortal man in a room of intense beauty

He turned towards me
His eyes afire with illusions of grandure
His gaze empowered by a desire
A desire To rule the world

He opened his mouth but as he spoke I heard only
Images Of dead people
Rotting corpses piled upon each other
Forming mountains of deseased flesh covered in black soot

Everything covered in black soot


And when travelling under the stars
Accompied by the existence of human brutality
I saw in front of me
Giant armies on a barren and desolate field

In the distance I heard the sound of big guns
Big guns that spewed out death unto the field
And bigger guns behind them
And even bigger guns behind them

The armies throw themselves at each other
Again and again for eternity they collided
And for each retreat the number of dead bodies increased
The slain was Left behind in the mud covered in black soot

Everything covered in black soot


I am the creator
And the focus of my creation
Like the boundaries of my will
Is cosmos and beyond


And when travelling under the stars
Engulfed by the hypocrisy of human faith
I saw hordes of human cattle
Following one man without question or suspicion

If he asked them to fix him food they did
If he asked them to satisfy him they did
If he asked them to praise him they did
If he asked them to lie for him they did

And suddenly the shape of the world seemed to shift
It was like a great power had struck the human cattle
And they all fell down dead
In the green of the jungle the corpses lie scattered covered in black soot

Everything covered in black soot
