The Ceaseless One
Eternal Strife Unveiled: The Ceaseless Journey of RedemptionLyrics
Cast out
Feeling rejected or expelled
Will the endless wave consume me and wash away my transgressions
Contemplating whether a relentless force will engulf and purify the speaker, erasing their wrongdoings before their rise to a higher state
But not before my ascension
The speaker's elevation or advancement before facing consequences
What I've become haunts me
The realization that the speaker's transformed self is haunting
Drifting into damnation, slaughtering nocturnal creation
Drifting into damnation, engaging in the destruction of nocturnal beings
Would they still recognize me, scarred from the years of this strife
Wondering if others would still recognize the speaker, marked by the scars of years of struggle
I'll never know
Uncertainty about whether the speaker will ever know the answer
I'd rather not know
Preferably avoiding knowledge of the self
Cursed and depraved
Being under a curse and morally corrupt
Digging graves for the undead
Engaging in the act of digging graves for the undead
I
Asserting the speaker's ceaseless nature
Am
-Ceaseless
-As ashes fall
Comparing the speaker's continuity to falling ashes
So do I
The speaker's descent in tandem with falling ashes
Deeper
Deepening involvement in dissolution fueled by rage
Dissolute in my rage
Despite dissolution, there is a hope that it might cleanse the world someday
Though it may
Questioning existence and expressing a desire to feast on the decay of the world
Cleanse this world someday
-Why am I still here if not to feast
-On the corpse of this cursed world
-Under the light of a pale moon corpses pile
Describing a scene where corpses accumulate under the light of a pale moon
The reaper of the reanimated walks this land
Introducing the reaper of the reanimated, a figure walking the land
Malediction?
Contemplating whether the current state is a curse or an illness that befell the world
Or a sickness?
-The world befell
Describing a world where corpses gather under the light of a pale moon
Under the light of a pale moon corpses mass
-I hear them breaking down my door
Awareness of impending danger as something breaks down the speaker's door
Only this
Emphasizing a singular focus on the impending threat
Only this
-And nothing more
Clarifying that only this threat matters and nothing more
As ashes fall
Reiterating the speaker's continuity and the potential cleansing power of their dissolution
So do I
-Deeper
-Dissolute in my rage
-Though it may
-Cleanse this world someday
