The Catalyst

from Aurorae by Celestis

/

lyrics

Desired words
The serpent's grasp
Seep through your veins

False glints of hope
A spark of light
Souls embraced in flames

Abhorrent lies
Sweet poisoned fruit
Devastating games

Whispers in the night
Echo through your mind
Foreboding pain

I should've said it there and then
Yet all I did was delay the end
Now lost to me, I'm on the search again
Where did it all go wrong?

You serve the dark
You're the masters' apprentice
So sinister
The Catalyst
Hollow inside
You're the chaosweaver
Weave the end of time
The Catalyst

Silver tongue
Venomous words
Deceptive ways

A shadowed face
Mocking fate
Numbering your days

Blades in your back
Unmend your wounds
With crimson spray

Half-truths he spun
False hope he gave
And soiled your name

I should've said it there and then
But now I'm on the run
(I'll) find myself yet, but I don't know when
Just one look back, and then I'm gone

You serve the dark
You're the masters' apprentice
So sinister
The Catalyst
Hollow inside
You're the chaosweaver
Place pearls before swine
The Catalyst

Come forward you ignorant, step forth and see
Your anguish is born of your petty desires
Blinded and scorned, you conform and consume
Your light diminished by illusions of grandeur

I should've said it there and then
Yet all I did was delay the end
Now lost to me, I'm on the search again
Where did it all go wrong?

You writhe in pain, hiss through your teeth
And blame all this on me
But I know your kind, I see through your lies
I don't want you here with me

You serve the dark
You're the masters' apprentice
So sinister
The Catalyst
Hollow inside
You're the chaosweaver
Weave the end of time
The Catalyst
