Liturgy - Behind the Void lyrics

In vain the iron-wrought tower Pierces heaven's dome In vain the muscle tears it's fiber Ten more fibers blossom in its place They tried to plant a flag Behind the void In vain the moat surrounds the castle Mud skulks across its bed In vain contraction In vain expansion In vain our kind seeks total order There is a fissure at the heart of being They tried to plant a flag Behind the void
