Until My Master Wakes Me
Written by Kimmo Ihanus.
Nails through the silence The covenant was written In blood I never chose They stripped the voice from my throat Every prayer I offered Fell to ash I carried the weight of their dead gods Bent to a will I desired But could not see No more begging No more crawling on the stone Bury the instrument When the song is done Silence at last Low down the casket Lay me to rest Until my master Wakes me again The earth is a mercy Cold It consumes me I walked through their temples I wore their mark like a scar Fought wars for a king Whose face I never saw Let the roots reclaim the hollow Where my chest used to be Let the dark press in and fill it There is nothing left of me No more begging No more crawling on the stone Bury the instrument When the song is done Silence at last Low down the casket Lay me to rest Until my master Wakes me again Until my master Wakes me again
