Текст песни The Wake - High Priest

Pacing in my cell
Sentenced to life
No
Sentenced to eternity
Trapped with my viscous thoughts

I hear the laughter of my captors
It only furthers my derangement
They speak in twisted tongues
The language of the ancients
Spiraling into insanity
Having visions of the end

And wishes of execution
By my faceless jailers
But my pleas fall upon deaf ears
Kept alive through sheer will
My mind slips further
I hear the voice of a woman

Behind a keyless door
She promises to end my horrors
I take my last breath
And fall to the abyss
My reward for my compliance
Is my empty vessel
Tossed out like garbage

Outside to be scouted
And devoured
By the wake

Outside to be scouted
And devoured
By the wake

I left without a whimper
Don't forget about me
As I'm wrapped up by strands of time

Sinew strewn across desert lands
The crimson laid out on gold
With a cloudless sky
