Dreadnought Songtext
von Abyssius

I awaken in the ichor
Primordial froth of all creation (of all creation)
Surrounded by blackness
I peer into the infinite void before me

Who was I?
Who am I?
Are these questions worth answering?
No thought will slow my descent
My form is but a slave to the current

A great moan echoes out through the deep
And a light peers out from the darkness
The jagged maw is revealed
A behemoth imprisoned by sleep

Dreaming, drowning
I hear the dreadnought calling
Vacuous, darkness
Is this the void beyond?


The colossus of flesh grins wide
And its maw opens up to a vacuum, a vortex that pulls me inside
I thrash in vain, helpless to turbulent tides

A pressure clamps down on my head
Split in twain
Spilling all of myself into everything else

Guillotine of bone and brine, bisects
Yet I feel no pain (yet I feel no pain)

Drag me down into the infinite depth
Fear of the unknown has left me completely
Drag me down into the infinite depth
Fear of the unknown has left me completely

Lost in cosmos
Road to nowhere
Spinning in void
Nihilist Sisyphus
Are there answers to my questions?

Darkness, sorrow
Without a light to follow
The belly of the beast
So vacant, so hollow


Existence cannot be despair
I refuse to disappear

A light shines out through the cavern
I gasp as the air fills my lungs
My feet touch the ground for the first time
I hear a song in an alien tongue

Ringing out like a bell of awakening
The swan song of enlightenment
I will make my way through these bowels
Before my burning questions set me aflame
Promethean flame, light my way
