Apokatastasis
In the fire and splendour,
At the end of the endeavour
Reeling from strain of the flesh,
We are walking through flames...
...into the darkness behind our eyes,
Beyond the reach of the gods
Crossing the Rubicon of Mercury,
Pouring our ambrosia down
In the void and ether,
At the beginning of the ever
Yet never to enter again,
This wicker man in flames
Midst reeking stench
Of salts and formaldehyde
Come and cast yourselves
Into the fire!
The smoke above dying embers
Slowly gravitates towards new form
The burning of this Vitruvian shape
Is to live forever and forever we remain
Smoke rising above the remains
The smoke will always remain
Midst reeking stench
Of salts and formaldehyde
Come and cast yourselves
Into the fire!
...into the darkness behind our eyes,
Beyond the reach of the gods
Crossing the Rubicon of Mercury,
Pouring our ambrosia down.
In the fire and splendour
At the end of the endeavour
Reeling from the strain of the flesh,
We are walking through flames...
The smoke above dying embers
Slowly gravitates towards new form
The burning of this Vitruvian shape
Is to live forever and forever we remain
Smoke rising above the remains
The smoke will always remain
At the end of the endeavour
Reeling from strain of the flesh,
We are walking through flames...
...into the darkness behind our eyes,
Beyond the reach of the gods
Crossing the Rubicon of Mercury,
Pouring our ambrosia down
In the void and ether,
At the beginning of the ever
Yet never to enter again,
This wicker man in flames
Midst reeking stench
Of salts and formaldehyde
Come and cast yourselves
Into the fire!
The smoke above dying embers
Slowly gravitates towards new form
The burning of this Vitruvian shape
Is to live forever and forever we remain
Smoke rising above the remains
The smoke will always remain
Midst reeking stench
Of salts and formaldehyde
Come and cast yourselves
Into the fire!
...into the darkness behind our eyes,
Beyond the reach of the gods
Crossing the Rubicon of Mercury,
Pouring our ambrosia down.
In the fire and splendour
At the end of the endeavour
Reeling from the strain of the flesh,
We are walking through flames...
The smoke above dying embers
Slowly gravitates towards new form
The burning of this Vitruvian shape
Is to live forever and forever we remain
Smoke rising above the remains
The smoke will always remain
