Proteus Songtext
von Ofnus

Staring out at the sea
Clutch my dagger close at hand
Fate is clouded with my grief
And hoping for a better life

Oh mighty beyond
To them that we call
Sendeth benevolent signs
Return us this day
So callously grave
Why must we suffer this way?

Fate upon us
Faith is spurious
Maddening growing in me
Why erroneous
Grey delirious
Hourglass tumble beneath

Bargaining
Anguishing
Lamenting


Bargaining
Despairing
Suffering

Fallacy of our dismay
Lauding our sorrows this day
Come unto us we beseech
Mortuary hidden beneath
A call up into the night
A wish to you answer this plight
Finality cannot accept
Eternal I shall be bereft


I am falling
I am jaded
Mired in apathy
I am worn
And so frustrated
Steeped in agony
Come and take me
To the night now
Broken by this death
Just one chance
To say goodbye
Is all I really ask

I will follow on the path
The memory will live on
Lingers the strong desire
Depression sublime

Many times we slip into the state
Unknown reason cannot sate
Righteous, bargain to the deep
A simple method of relief
Wailing to the end of days
Calling forward, now too late
Longing still forever gone
I am afraid of what′s to come

Ratified by the ways of one
Glorify the graceful doom

Marching onward to a fate now hopeless
Sealing now the runes of ages past
Foolish I see, were my dreams
Now languished

I bargained for your life
And toiled with my strife
But in the end it was unwise
To truly become one
And mourn the passing on
Reflection into me
And mending underneath
