inception

Eluveitie

And there was nothing

Grannus' healing touch
Cernunnos' beckon
Deo Sucellos' strike
Taranis' piercing roar
Dandelions floating like snow
Witness the eternal laws of nimiety

Every single one
Is numbered
Not one is forgotten
Every single one
Is just one more in Sucellus' hand
Infinitesimal and evanescent

Distant echoes ring out, exalting the unseen
Ancient mountains serenely bode the vast
All deriding the pompous futile
That will be burnt to ashes and be washed away

Is it sempiternal, yet sanctifying
Waters and fires are to come

They teach that the soul does
Not descend to the silent land of Erebus
And the sunless realm of Dis below
But that the same breath still governs the limbs
In a different world
If their tale be true
Death is but a point in the midst of perpetual life

The ephemeral will fade, the futile will be washed away
Wounds will be healed and questions will be answered
Creation cleansed for a brand new day

Evanescent
Minor and small
Insignificant
Will become a little star
To shine for those to come
