do you feel the flame that's burning

as the candle dies

do you see the spirits stirring

as you close your eyes

do you sense the slow advancement

as the twilight thins

do you see the serpent dancing

as it sheds its skin



does the sun renounce its kingdom

as the shadows fall

does a fool rejoice in wisdom

when the raven calls

do you embrace the dancing clayman

as he tears your flesh

do you hear the souls screaming

in the serpents mesh



do you need the consolation

of a dead mans hand

as the tears of desolation

flood a dead mans land

do you seek your souls redemption

under fervent skies

don't you see your own reflection

in the serpents eye
