elder misanthropy

Lyrics

wisdom infinite, held tightly in my grasp, my sword one thousand battles strong, ageless i remain, beyond the reach of death, indebted by my soul, i have witnessed the birthing of your faith, the tribulations, the driving of the stake, so slowly this immortal coil unwinds, until the end -- the end of fucking time, blood of the ancient one is burning through my veins, the blood of gods man's never known, i am the one who cannot die, i am the the killer for all time, seeds of infinite hate i've sown, i walk the earth enshrouded in its darkness, eclipsing, i claim the flesh of man, ageless i remain with vengeance on my breath, revolted by the meek, i have witnessed the birthing of your faith, the tribulations, the driving of the stake, so slowly this immortal coil unwinds, this crumbing world -- has become mine, see the creation of this world, see it all reduced to ash, in the blink of a sunken eye, i see one hundred winters pass, my blessing, my curse, perpetually i'm damned to earth, of a soul i am bereft, forever dying to be dead, slipping through centuries untouched by human love, void of the simple pleasures that human life provides, forever bound, i lie in wait, undying -- and insane, see the creation of this world, see it all reduced to ash, in the blink of a sunken eye, i see one hundred winters pass, my blessing, my curse, perpetually i'm damned to earth, of a soul i am bereft, forever dying to be dead!
