This is a tale long to live but alas so short to tell by the wind and by time, 
By everything that flees
A torment of my liking, exploring extremes

All thoughts secluded as fear stalks its blooded soil
In the winding path where a chain now rattles
With links merely death can break
Stains of pride, derelict

In feverish visions of agonizing light
Pulsating rhythms unpure

So pound the drum and strike the chords of chaos
So scream out to the skies
Of chaos and eternal night

Never is the dark any threat to my existence
Comforting ravens claws grip the stars that fell tonight
The stealth of infinite beauty
Nevertheless heaven fell tonight

Racing along with the strangled teardrop
Life's elixir in benevolent lust
Slit open the throat that is virtue
Let fire ravage its caverns with joy

Ardent but silent in twilight resigned
Delivered from virtue in vehement plight
Yet ask not of your vanity
The hooved agitator in your creed
To let loose all the stars of heaven
Stray across the vault your seed

Concealed cravings must through fulfillment be broken
Hide no longer behind the veil of unconvincing lies

So pound the drum and strike the chords of chaos
So scream out to the skies
Of chaos and eternal night

I've seen fires waving patterns
Forging ornaments hidden from a world of distrust
Grace through hatred
Of chaos and eternal night

In shadows now vengeful waiting out your bitter foe
The mirror distorts
Sinful is the perceiving eye
Tearless in nondescript form
Scarlet secrets tell of nightmarish fear
Illusions that speak of endless night

A venture in terms of one hazardous journey
Into chaos and eternal night

Deliver me from virtue
Hidden no more beneath tender veil of lies
And let 'em all out
Unseen and sinful
Of chaos and eternal night
