Black hole, cosmic terror Swallowing time Great nothing, thoughts disquiet Infecting my mind Coronal, mass ejection Beyond the black veil Escaping, seas of fire Cannibal sun Cold and lifeless living here between the stars A thousand light years separate from where you are Alone, lost horizon Where the stars drown The sky, black and seamless Spiralling time Cold and lifeless living here between the stars Eaten up by nothing for ten thousand years Cold and lifeless living here between the stars Countless light years separate from where you are

Tigress, ripple of the Lethe in your kiss Martyr, punished and condemned to the abyss Lie down, taste oblivion slumber in the deep Flow dark waters endless where our secrets keep All the skies will fall and all the stars will fade Sands stretch, lone and level, nothing else remains Leave the world unseen unto the forest dim All our yesterdays will lead us to the end Bring me the waters of Lethe, let me Slake my thirst on oblivion Release from pain, one more goodbye, nepenthe The river flowing on and on Liquid siren calling promise sweet release Darkness shrouds all thought now find eternal peace Lethe as I stand before your tranquil shore Lose myself in nothingness forevermore Quickly, bring me the waters of Lethe That I may taste oblivion Drowning sorrow, take me to black, nepenthe The river flowing on and on Bring me the waters of Lethe, let me Slake my thirst on oblivion Release from pain, one more goodbye, nepenthe The river flowing on and on

Sea of gold, time standing still Chaos sings, whispered tales Here I am and here I remain Shifting sands, tempest of change Secret valley, desert doorway Whirlwind fury, calling to me Sunken vale, quiet as stone Desert's heart, ancient unknown Into the valley of peril we ride Secret truths hidden inside Secret valley, desert doorway Whirlwind fury, soon we'll be free
