The Antithesis of Light: Swallowed by the Shadow of the Universe

by max-southwood

You are the antithesis of light Bottomless black hole Swirling black mass stealing all life Rape me of my will Deprive me of my strength A tear in the essence of freedom Drive a stake through the heart of happiness Erase all life Forget what came before Your shadow all encompassing There is nothing more There is nothing less You are what is and what always will be Forsaker of life Destroyer of worlds Devour my soul Annihilate my spirit Smother me in your darkness Go on, go forth! Destroy all the known worlds Your shadow all encompassing There is nothing more There is nothing less You are what is and what always will be You are the absence of light

Notes

These are actually lyrics to a song I wrote for my one man black metal project, Keeper of the Gloom. I thought I'd share them regardless because I've always been proud of their intensity.
