From high above the starlit sky
Cast a shadow over the beings of time
And space between the stars is dark
Denied by light
Hidden among the shadow
A slithering rapture
The light of the stars
Unveils its capture
The cross of chains and hooks
Pierce through the palm of the hand
Until there is nothing more to gain
And the chains circle the arm
Twisted across from side to side
But merely a limb can't fulfill their hunger
As there is much more in the illusion of desire
And the chains cocoon the lungs
The hour at hand will complete the rite
Anxious gasp for air
Inhales the life out of the living
And by every pull of the chained hand
The cycle starts again
