Draconian - The Last Hour Ancient Sunlight Lyrics
Black is the sunlight shimmering below; It flows through life and the guilt we shareOur sorrow, it cuts through the undergrowth, As we abandon this ravenous Earth aloneThe zeitgeist dimmed the surface and seized the soulOur Mother wept behind the fence, And we drained her blood, then forgetting her face, And hide from everyone... To breathe, to conquer, To linger, to utilize the ignorant herdIn rapture from nature we divorce, Like orphans by desire, From this closing lightThe bewildered sleep -The shadowy voyager is lurking; He's in the flesh of landscapes vaporousThe vacant, untiring Sovran of old... He's the machinery; igniting the paralyzed soilWe took the blood of the earthAnd fell in love with deathWith life itself as an excuseBlack is the sunlight shimmering below; It flows through life and the guilt we shareWe're hiding in chorus as starry eyes close, And seasons part in farewell; 'Cause we drained her blood, then forgetting her faceTo hide from everyoneThe bewildered sleep -The shadowy voyager is lurking; He's in the flesh of landscapes vaporousThe vacant, untiring Sovran of old... He's the machinery; igniting the paralyzed soil
