Invocations in Mud and Bondage

from Manna From Heaven by Chasm Shroud

/

lyrics

Golem - devoid of mind
Vacant heart known to none
Strangled innocence
Bidding providence

Dancing beneath my Master's hand

Kneaded vessel, shapeless husk
Emanated through chaos
Ecstatic experience
Unbound existence

My light form - raw before His eyes

My being - intoned and bound
Blank before Him
Filling this form and His wish
Driving these bones of clay

So that I may do thy bidding

Engine of wrath
His unseen hand
The Master’s reach
Soon to dissolve back to Earth

But what do they see? These figures carved into this skull of mud?

Shem emet
Bel aleph, met
Creation of the sages
Return to dust

Shem emet
Bel aleph, met
Truth in bondage
Freedom in death

Scourges of Hell and Heaven
Swirling around this hollow form
Yet my shape imprisoned,
Tethered to His single bidding
Boring through time and tide
Untouched by grace or sin
Satan knows not this Hell of mine
Bowing to my Master’s will

The husk in bondage
My heart, nothing but stone
Return to dust
Freedom in death
