Lyrics At The Gates – Daggers Of Black Haze
Text:
Masked in merciful weakness
A tribute of ritual prey
The frozen surface cracks
Dressed in iconic grace
Floods the pit of dreams
The martyrdom of perfection
A phantom construction dead
The anesthesia of repetition
Let monotony and isolation reign
Will our persistence fade like daggers?
(Daggers) daggers of black haze
Mute now, the anthems and dogmas
Cynicism reproduced
The reliefs watch unseen
In winding and rigid shapes
An ideology solidified
The fragments lost in time
From within inaccessible walls
Their elitism starves us blind
Unending eyes, they watch unseen
Starving for themselves in me
Masked in merciful weakness
A tribute of ritual prey
The frozen surface cracks
Mute now, the anthems and dogmas
Cynicism reproduced
The reliefs they watch unseen
Will our persistence fade like daggers?
(Daggers) daggers of black haze
(Daggers) daggers of black haze
(Daggers, daggers) daggers of black haze
