Star-maps Of The Ancient Cosmographers Lyrics

[The Thaumaturgist:]

The Great Eye of the Universe opens! Through this
astral art the secrets of the

cosmos are mine to know... for the stars
are my dominion!

Empowered at the periphery, ascending to the Id's
eyrie,

The cosmos feathers her nest with fire.

Ephemeral, the nexus
calls, besieging cyclopean walls,

Branded deviant and pariah.

Betwixt the hammer and the anvil are forged the stars...

On the wings
of the ersatz ones... through the fathomless abyss.



[The
Thaumaturgist's Epiphany:]

Like a blackened and baleful sun shall I gaze
down from beyond the cumuli and

the firmament upon you. I alone must bear
the burden of this fiend-wrested lore.

New stars without number burn in
the heavens, but the shadow of oblivion falls

ever closer.



Shortly thereafter, the dreamscape began to fade, and reality beckoned my

consciousness away from the incredible vista. In truth, I was indeed glad
to

awaken...
