Father Time Part I (The Father Naked) Songtext
von Symphress

Who are you? (Who?)
Dismal reflection (who?)
A dirge, a spire, a life (who?)
A dreamless night

Father Time (Father Time)
Faulty Time (faulty Time)
Tentacles of love and hate
Sons of strife, of plague and death
Seduced us all in search for fate

I know you, rootless contraption
Imprisoned in my cell
Captured in creation
Pale light of the moon (pale light of the moon)
Poured into my arms


To Sol, I write as Jupiter
Misconceived
Burn me away
With the cloth of the universe
As the veil of my tide

Hold on to the passion (hold on, hold on, hold on)
Hold on to the hope (hold on, hold on, hold on)
Hold on to the artist
As his worlds unfold

Our journey meets its end
We are one step away from ironically intangible resolution
We are forever locked in this temporal vortex
Unable to move outside yet able to breathe
Asphyxiation is at hand
For the ones who do not embrace the act of creation
The Father disdains
The Father consumes
The Father destroys
