Lyrics for If Eternity Should Fail - Live at Qudos Bank Arena, Sydney, Australia - 6th May 2016

Here is the soul of a man Here in this place for the taking Clothen in white Stand in the light Here is the soul of a man Time to speak with the shaman again Conjure the jester again Black dog in the ruins is howling my name So here is the soul of a man When the world was virgin Before the coming of man Just a solemn witness The beginning of the end From a world of magma To a cold rock face The ascent of madness And the human race We are strange believers All of us There are stranger truths In molten rust We rise from slumber It calls our name Recalls our number How bad we come Reefing a sail on the edge of the world If eternity should fail Waiting in line for the ending of time If eternity should fail Reefing a sail on the edge of the world If eternity should fail Waiting in line for the ending of time If eternity should fail To God's illusion Which I recall Was our delusion Before the fall The angels come And angels go But the lord of light Shining below Eternal blackness Beyond the stars We think our wisdom Will get that far At the master's table The table's bare No line of plenty Devastation, despair Reefing a sail on the edge of the world If eternity should fail Waiting in line for the ending of time If eternity should fail Reefing a sail on the edge of the world If eternity should fail Waiting in line for the ending of time If eternity should fail Reefing a sail on the edge of the world If eternity should fail Waiting in line for the ending of your time If eternity should fail Reefing a sail on the edge of the world If eternity should fail Waiting in line for the ending your time If eternity should fail Reefing a sail on the edge of the world If eternity should fail Waiting in line for the ending of time If eternity should fail Reefing a sail on the edge of the world If eternity should fail Waiting in line for the ending of time If eternity should fail Good day My name is necropolis I am formed of the dead I am the harvester of the soul And I suck the lives from my bed I own two sons, I gave them breath And I fill their living corpses with my bile What humanity I knew I have long forgotten For me, eternity is nothing but a short while
