lirik lagu negative plane - and so it came to pass

Loading...

in the summer of a year that has long been forgotten since
the wheel had turned again to the darkest time of past events

a man of wealth had died, and left to the younger of two surviving sons, the family manor passed down through seven generations

the younger, his father had favored, as for the older he’d felt nothing but shame, and so the eldest son was denied then his rightful claim

but later that evening, while thе younger brother stood at the top of thе steps, a fatal blow was struck and he fell to his death

a tragedy was staged to conceal his mortal sin
and as the only surviving heir, his father’s manor then went to him

without a living witness, the eldest’s claim was not denied
although he was suspected, none could prove otherwise

just like cain and abel
the older and younger
the past becomes the present
as it was before, it now must be again
as it was, it now must be
and once again, the past repeats
as it was, it again will be
until the last one is complete

something was amiss
the eldest turned back to meet the gaze
of the portrait of a man hanging just above the fireplace
whose cruel features seemed almost to reflect his own
the one who had built the church, upon whose ruins
now stood his home

he had vowed that the work would stand throughout the centuries
but his vision was destroyed with the blessing of the holy see
who had washed its hands of the blood spilled within the walls
of the corrupted chapel of horrors, whose infamy had betrayed them all

and so the church was set ablaze and razed down to the ground, but its steeple would not fall, and the flames would not reach to the tower

the cursed land was then returned to the family in disgrace
who built on the ruin around the tower a manor in the church’s place

just like the worm divided that doubles in length and size
the past becomes the present
as it was before it now must be again
as it was, it now must be
and once again, the past repeats
as it was, it again will be
until the last one is complete

the brother could hear, it seemed, another’s thoughts inside his head
speaking with his voice, but with the language of the dead

“my thoughts are now your thoughts for my blood runs deep
throughout your veins
you are my descendent, and through you
i will now live yet again”

what you are now
i once was too
and what i am now
you soon shall be
the door to heaven
one may pass through
with a permutation’s key
three turns to the west
one towards the east
using faith, and not light, to see

i am waiting there in the steeple’s tower
you must now come and walk with me”
as if in a trance, he walked right through the iron door
and a black dog led him up the winding stairs
through an opening in the floor, to the steeple’s sunlit chamber where he saw still sitting at his desk, mouth and eyes still open
the preserved remains of the missing architect

“now continue my work
undo this disgrace
let the righteous flames consume this place
so that i may then
begin again
and my church will stand
one thousand years”

and so he stood engulfed in flames
dressed in the raiments of his ancestor
while laughter filled the burning tower
in the place where clouds dwell
and to where the angels fly
