Damnatio Memoriae
A swift blow, a last heart-throb, the crowd's roar - then the pain of the birth of a sun
Hazy eyes saw my final breath soar - as my body and head were not one
And I could not recall what I lived for, and I could not recall how I've sinned
While their nails in my flesh deeply tore as my warm blood scented, scented the wind
"What a beautiful world to depart" - I whispered while I entered Letus' dominion
"A world I'm no longer enslaved in"
And they gave my carcass to vultures, and they gave my name to oblivion
As they crushed the stone it's engraved in
Dooming the remembrance, banished for eternity
Scorned and subdued, abolished from reality
The fiber of bleeding, surrendered surrendered
Secluded incomplete, smeared in ashes
Damnatio memoriae
All traces removed
Sentenced to be wiped out
A being rendered invisible
By the highest gallows, an obelisk of failure
Devoid of name and purpose, watching life unfold
Lost in an ocean of strings, a life wasted
Autonomous hands playing the harmonic pelicula
Hazy eyes saw my final breath soar - as my body and head were not one
And I could not recall what I lived for, and I could not recall how I've sinned
While their nails in my flesh deeply tore as my warm blood scented, scented the wind
"What a beautiful world to depart" - I whispered while I entered Letus' dominion
"A world I'm no longer enslaved in"
And they gave my carcass to vultures, and they gave my name to oblivion
As they crushed the stone it's engraved in
Dooming the remembrance, banished for eternity
Scorned and subdued, abolished from reality
The fiber of bleeding, surrendered surrendered
Secluded incomplete, smeared in ashes
Damnatio memoriae
All traces removed
Sentenced to be wiped out
A being rendered invisible
By the highest gallows, an obelisk of failure
Devoid of name and purpose, watching life unfold
Lost in an ocean of strings, a life wasted
Autonomous hands playing the harmonic pelicula
