Underworlds

from Underworlds by A God from the Machine

lyrics

Love fades, light fails, and in the end
gentle Mother Night calls her children home.

Suffer not hope, nor hope for suffering's end.
The light's salvation is fragile, hollow, pale.

But drown in night. See how lush the shadows,
a thick, vibrant tapestry made divine by broken dreams.

Worldless, oh less mortal than before.
Our dreams, devices wasted on the shore.
Hopeless, on this ageless sea adrift forevermore.
Here for the fallen I claim these dreamlit underworlds.

So in the bitter end the violent cries recede,
transfixed in awe before this beautiful fatality.

I see clearly now, the only way through is down.

Worldless, oh less mortal than before.
Our dreams, devices wasted on the shore.
Hopeless, sever this empty soul, spoken nevermore
Here for the fallen I claim these dreamlit underworlds.
