ALGHAZANTH - 8TH SPHERE lyrics

With fear at heart you exhale your life

and down, down, down you'll stride

Each impulse you've indulged

failure wears your ring

born a slave to wealth and fame

failure! Where's your king?

With the vortex streams of karmic gravity

sinking to the grosser realms beneath

to the 8th sphere, the gutter of cosmos

from whence arises none

Not Hell but the globe of death

too dense for an eye to detect

the place of complete dissolution

nature's evolutionary absolution

Like a fly captured in a jar

destined to dissolve you are

atom by atom, flaw by flaw

slowly ground in the teeth of All

The shape of shadows and light

puts out the dying fires inside

another soul embraces its end

never to reborn again

With fear at heart you exhale your life

and down, down, down you'll stride

Each impulse you've indulged

failure wears your ring

born a slave to wealth and fame

failure! Where's your king?

With the vortex streams of karmic gravity

sinking to the grosser realms beneath

to the 8th sphere, the furnace of cosmos

from whence returns none
