Agalloch Celestial Effigy

Tekst piosenki

„Teach me your mood, O patient stars!
Who climb each night the ancient sky
Leaving on space no shade, no scars
No trace of age, no fear to die.”
[- Emerson]
„My allegiance is with the inner self
The dark celestial voice of wisdom
Beyond the dust that is this world.”
There is a voice adrift in the starless
And marble black dark space
A voice of wisdom and purity
Beyond the vestiges of sanity
There is a voice deep in the darkest places
Calling…haunting me…
Where no light bears a shadow
Where no time escapes unhallowed
I am compelled to dissolve
Into the eternal unknown eidolon
A voice that leads to a world beyond
A mere mortal’s most profound dreams
Yet I know…
There is no turning back from here
There is no place for the undeserved
Gone are the relics!
„Teach me your ways
Of hatred, unlight, and death
I offer myself to your wisdom
My allegiance is with the elite!”
There is a voice adrift in the darkness
Calling…calling me…
A whisper of wisdom and purity
Beyond the vestiges of sanity
There is a voice deep in the starless
And marble black dark space
Where no light draws a shadow
Where no time escapes unhallowed
„An effigy; a gift from another kind”
In the glow of a distant aurora light
No dreams shall take form
Gifts dwell in the depths of
Things unspoken
This night…
