Vanum - Beneath the Pillars of Earth and Air lyrics
[Vanum - Beneath the Pillars of Earth and Air lyrics]
Pillars of this cursed firmament
Brought to life
Each before me revealed in flesh
Offer elixir to abate my death
In return for tribute
A duty pledged
A mortal offering to divine ends
"Will you free me from my past?
And release me from my shame?
Unshackle me from my burden
This prison I have made
This labor of choice, this weight unnamed?"
The light of grace veils
The chains of servitude
Invocation, seven rites
Bring me darkness, forsake the light
Beyond redemption, as I have always been
Above reprisal, the right I have claimed
Beyond redemption
For it is not yours to bestow
Above reprisal
For I am the master of all that is known
All that I have been
All that I've strived to be
Beyond redemption, above reprisal
The right I have claimed
Will, will you hold this vision?
Will you tend to the embers?
Know, know that this death
Is not defeat
