The Night Eternal by At the Gates Lyrics

The walls of a poem like the folding of wings!
They burn through the base of the skull!

Under the eyelids the night eternal!
Down fell the city of words

The blackness throbbing
Foul and unrestrained
Under the seafloor!
Against the white sand

Where the land has been drinking
All our blood and regret
Our words are like quicksand!
Against the endless sky

The poisonous darkness!
In solid silence
Like rivers of ice!
We burn like blinding fires
In the void of my spirit!
Deep in the lungs of Hell to sink like lead!
In the void of my spirit
Deep in the lungs of hell
Traceless through the air!
