Testo: Forever In Effigy. From Sleep And Shadows. Twelve Shots At Midnight.

The seconds drop like flies
from the hottest flames
stripped from your darkened cell
from where they stained your name
the cold of concrete binds
and from the darkness lead
but still they see through all
vapid ice-cold and dead

so aim you proud and steadfast
men of what is true and what is right
you'll earn your right to sleep tonight
So trace the path from breach to bloodline
in this wealth of urgency
for there is nothing left of me
nothing left woh oh

Reclaim your conscience
For your own
Burn bright
you sons left lost unknown
fear not the end of all to come
you'll know in time Im not the one

So tie the blindfold tight
and speak a saviors name
you breath your softer prayers
and safer passage claim
release the father first
and let the captain crawl
one thing they see for some will one day burn through all

Merciful and swift let go
purge this world of wretched sight
in a heartbeat all will fail
with one final flash of light
Fearing man this loathsome world
you did nothing to request
now's the time
that you are laid to rest
