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

Ooh - I I don't know, I don't want to believe, That I lost, Insecure, Lose and I'm sure. Why oh why, Did I lose, All the time, I won't let down, I won't give in, The answers, All I will win. I fail, I fail to believe, There's no more light that shines Light that shines on me, I fail, I fail to foresee, There's no more light that shines, Light that shines on me. Why why not, I will feats when you're her, And truth dies, In the cold, Hurt and descoast. I fail, I fail to believe, There's no more light that shines Light that shines on me, I fail, I fail to foresee, There's no more light that shines, Light that shines on me.

These quiet words, they carry me away Returning They keep coming back In idle thoughts and hollow cutaways Disarm me No will to attack Though the sorrow and fear they may depart you today I will fail you Of that I'm sure I will remind you of the pain forevermore And when my sins are just a memory Faith restored I will fail you To the core Lost in the shadow of an endless grace Relentless My reign is unbound In this abandon I will devastate Dismember 'Til agony's found Though the sorrow and fear they may depart you today I will fail you Of that I'm sure I will remind you of the pain forevermore And when my sins are just a memory Faith restored I will fail you To the core I know they prey upon me I feel them just beyond my door I will fail you Of that I'm sure I will remind you of the pain forevermore And when my sins are just a memory Faith restored I will fail you To the core I will fail you Of that I'm sure I will remind you of the pain forevermore And when my sins are just a memory Faith restored I will fail you To the core

In my primal love In my primal love In my primal love Don't try to cover me from what I'm feeling In my primal love Don't be afraid In my primal love I see where all the burning fire's hidden In my primal love I see your flame So I try to satisfy My fallen dove, my fallen dove I'm never gonna be the one, my fallen love But I'm never gonna be your savior I'm never gonna be the one I'm never gonna be the one, my fallen dove Don't cry for the things you love, my fallen dove Cause they die My man holds a lighter For the day I clamp his fire My man holds a lighter for our love So I try to satisfy My fallen dove, my fallen dove But I'm never gonna be your savior I'm never gonna be the one, my fallen dove Don't cry for the things you love, my fallen dove Cause they die in time
