Awen

As the clanking footfalls echo with the mirthless concrete walls

Down the parting road, the end to unfold

Marching relentlessly as if to break free

Towards the yawning void beyond the dawning light

For the end has come as time is gone

Behold the path foretold

When the time has come for the end undone

Behold

Will I ever hear the awen sing

In a cosmos filled with reverence?

Will I touch the soil in awe again

And caress the whispering winds divine?

Pray the vivid orison

We could see the promised aeon

When slaughter become history

And the children of Anu unite

The awen's cry

All the gold in the scale pan and the scheming of the damned

Erasing gods exiled, paradise defiled

For the end has come as time is gone

Behold the path foretold

When the time has come for the end undone

Behold

Will I ever hear the awen sing

In a cosmos filled with reverence?

Will I touch the soil in awe again

And caress the whispering winds divine?

The awen's cry

Will I ever hear the awen sing

In a cosmos filled with reverence?

Will I touch the soil in awe again

And caress the whispering winds divine?

Pray the vivid orison

Will we see the promised aeon

When slaughter become history

And the children of Anu unite?

The awen's cry
