Vitruvian Rays Songtext
von Sargassus

Blinded to the blessings
Deafened to the song
Annihilated
A world of spirit and joy
Descendants wrist-deep in mud
Heralds of unsculpted cinder
Where once radiance made its home
Abandoned the lessons of old

Vitruvian rays
Invisible venators
Black veins of omnipresent inspiration
Unescapeable growth and progress
On the stretching canvas of cosmos
A perfect passion and rationale
That has outgrown its home and heart


Each succeeding hour
The dread ever grows
So does it arrive
The chain of apathy
I know thy power well
Ceaselessly do I resist
With naught but my heart as home
My sacred chamber of rest

We serve the lines we′ve drawn
The rules etched onto yokes
We hold the ropes and pull
Unsure whether our suffering
Is prolonged or postponed
Seated on his throne, uninvolved
The angel of pride wins
Watching mused as the ape mocks the quill
As the sapient apex stagnates

Vitruvian rays
Invisible venators
Black veins of omnipresent inspiration
Unescapeable growth and progress
On the stretching canvas of cosmos
A perfect passion and rationale
That has outgrown its home and heart

Nulla dies sine linea
Labore et constantia
