lyrics

Burning light blinding, rending from slumber
Eyes squeezed tight against the incandescence blaze
Eyelids paling in insignificance fail to shield pupils from the glare

Night once offered solace from weariness
Now despoiled by radiation glow
And stalked by vulturous skulking rapacity the seeds we sow

Despite its perils night still offers
Safety in its shadows - concealment -
From the voyeurism that has become the human condition

Demon of night wagering life
Gamble on loaded dice
Will you roll sixes or snake eyes
Will you survive

Goddess of light sacrifice
Murderous bloody rites
Will you be chosen to survive
Or will you die

From the sun whose rays once gifted growth
Now only cause a blistering deformity
Travel relegated to night begrudging what our ancestors worshiped

Sleep evicted from night's embrace
Relegated to day's incessant blaze

Demon of night wagering life
Gamble on loaded dice
Will you roll sixes or snake eyes
Will you survive

Goddess of light sacrifice
Murderous bloody rites
Will you be chosen to survive
Or will you die
