Schammasch - I Burn Within You Lyrics

YOU SPEAK FROM DARK CORNERS
WHERE WE FIND OURSELVES IN, WHEN HOURS ARE DRIPPING FROM ABOVE THE SKY
IN YOUR DOMAIN, TIME IS DISSOLVED, LEAVING BUT LIQUID THAT DANCES, RADIANT WITH NONE
AND YOUR WORDS ECHO IN OUR MIND
NOT AMONG BONES AND FLESH, BUT WITHIN DARKNESS THAT HIDES BENEATH OUR EYELIDS
WHERE WE FIND OUR TRUE SELF, REVEALING NOT ONE SPARK OF YOUR ENIGMA
YET THERE ARE HINTS OF YOUR PRESENCE WITHIN ALL THAT WE DO
SO ENGRAVE YOUR SIGN INTO THE SURFACE OF OUR SPHERES

PENETRATING PRINCIPLES OF DISGUST
WITH TWO GOLDEN ARROWS
DIPPED IN A PSYCHEDELIC SERUM
ONE TO ANSWER FOR MY UNKNOWING
AND ONE FOR MY CLARITY
A PURE PORTION OF ELECTRIC VENOM
SCRAPING MY FACE OFF THIS WALL
A NON-DUAL FACET, BLUNT IN SUSTAIN

ENDANGERED SPECIES COME TO LIFE
DRAWING SKETCHES OF A HUMAN-BEING
PARADING BAREFOOT OVER BROKEN GLASS

IMPRISONED WE SCREAMED TO BE HEARD, EVEN IF WITHOUT SOUND, WITHOUT VOICE
WISDOM SPAKE, BUT WE DID NOT FOLLOW
WE'D RATHER DIVE INTO THE GAPING ABYSS 5 TIMES IN A ROW, DRUNK ON MOMENTARY SATISFACTION
WITH A RESULT OF RELEVATIONAL INSIGHT, CASTIGATORY WHEN CLOSE TO THE REFLECTION OF A MIRROR
MAYBE THAT IS HOW YOU TEACH DECEPTION?
IN ANY WAY THIS EYE IS WATCHING
IT'S WATCHING OVER ME

THROUGH THE MENTAL JUNGLE
WITH THE EYES OF A LION
TENTACLED PATTERNS OPEN UP AND
DIVINE COMMUNION UNFOLDS
AND I REALIZE THE ABSOLUTE NOTHING

MAYBE I'M TO BURN FOREVER
AND I WAS MEANT TO BURN FOR YOU

FOR MY ASCENT WAS VAIN ENDEAVOR
A LAMENT THAT YOU WITHDREW

INNER SENSE TO SEED YOUR CURSE
FORMING PATHS TO SEE TRANSCENDENCE

AS YOU'D ACCENT A FATE SO OBVERSE
WITH A FUSE THAT BURNS FROM TWICE ENDS

ENIGMATIC SCHEMING
I BURN WITHIN
IN ECSTATIC DREAMING
YOU ARE ALL AROUND ME
ENIGMATIC SCHEMING
YOU BURN WITHIN ME
IN ECSTATIC DREAMING
YOUR FLAMES SURROUND ME
