Guide a truth Prevail and ride Into the black hole Searching for crystal Making the veins bleed The source of consciousness Alive Crystalline resonance Into the black hole Searching for crystal Making the veins bleed A deep breath before the plunge One million voices Dispelling A thousand faces Disarming Running through the darkness Holding hearts in my eyes Falling short of gauntlet Covered in blood-sucking flies The touch is cold I tore a path screaming through wind and blood I will it all Burning deep in my skull
