lyrics
Imagine: beyond the ordered world exists a shadowed desert; and
from the beginning, it was ruled by immortal hounds
deities of the end
At last, I’ve come to a barren river bed with a valve
but to turn it, the desert seeks an offering - and with the turn, I’ve been cut
I thought I was doing the right thing, or that I could get away from it
Now could I see.. I’ve given in
I realize, we’ve all been robbed of ourselves
and the slave, he has fallen in love with the master
The ego, he will dig the hole in search for the fountain
the rites of his master, the crowned monarch of this dried riverbed, the kingdom of the shadow
but he was the greatest fool - to think he could give all his blood to a river that would keep him alive!
Bite the heart, and let go
‘It’s a great game of hunter and prey’
He managed to bury his head in the sand,
so that one day he can awake to freedom
from his pain
but beneath the sand there is only more sand
Was it his symbols that led him there? Was he too proud, was it the might of God that struck him down?
Either way, he’s removed himself of the present, and now he dies
Only that which is not flawed is inevitable
Those promises of rights were a hoax
And even the river, red as blood
flowing in the same direction as the wind
For us, it’s the greatest sin
to lay down here and die
So what is the truth, and why must this be?
What have I learned in my journey across the desert; a supreme being
that waits patiently
Other than the drain is closed, the river is either gone or it was fake
‘It’s a great game of hunter and prey’
