Black Star

Written by Kimmo Ihanus.

At the edge of what we know
A wound torn open
A mouth that feeds
upon the divine
A million years of burning gone
Collapsed into itself
And on and on
Until time becomes undone

The void was here before our god
Before the first word
Before the silence
Before the odd

Devour everything
Black star
We are less than anything
The weight of all your doings
Has bent the gods down to their knees

Ten thousand years
The light is gone,
The dark grows cold
On the altar of your endless dark
We built our languages and laws
To name the nameless
But sanity is just the lie
We tell ourselves before we die

The void was here before our god
Before the first word
Before the silence
Before the odd

Devour everything
Black star
We are less than anything
The weight of all your doings
Has bent the gods down to their knees

Devour everything
Black star
We are less than anything
The weight of all your doings
Has bent the gods down to their knees
