Lyrics
Prophet
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Spiral staircase to the center of the earth
Green lit orb, siar eye, one and first
Hidden hole, pit of jura, serpent cult
Descending down, steps of bone greet the old
Prophet
Where's the manifest of fire?
Prophet
See, his eye is made of stone
Always staring at the sun
Torchlit walk into the dark, starless deep
Black parade, Khaalus cave, breathless steep
See, behold the oracle, the divine
We are thy servants 'til the end of time
Prophet
Where's the manifest of fire?
Prophet
See, his eye is made of stone
Always staring at the sun
We are the guardians of the purple flame
Please show us the start of it all and everything
The dreams, the way of the dead, the age of stars
Give us the birth and the death of eternity
Crystal globe, starblack eye, holy void
Fill our heads with godlike threads, speak in tongues
Tell us please, future dreams, cosmic plans
Show us the apocalypse, forevermore
Prophet
Where's the manifest of fire?
Prophet
See, his eye is made of stone
Always staring at the sun
Oh, dead prophets come and go
Like dying rainbows in the snow
But no one spoke and no one called
Bury the false, bury them all
