Contemplation lyrics:

"could one easily fall asleep
there would not be a need for this sin
pondering inner most mysteries
wondering what life could have been

This polished world, it offers you a room
where you can hide inside a silent tomb
It builds a fiction, perfect and serene
a flawless puppet, for a lonely scene
The evil here is not the face you see
but that you'll choose it over being free

to find yourself longing
like narcissus staring at the well
looking at something, finding nothing
you only remember unfeeling caresses
whatever happens, does not matter...
recollections that came and went...

A memory sparks again, fleetingly
he was buried, crucified and banished
into night, his disciplines were scattered
yet I, son of...
lived on, drinking blood, life of others
reflection, a mirror of humanity

And in stillness the old betrayals gleam
Thirty coins of silver poisoning the stream
My father's choice, the shadow I must wear
The mirror whispers "this is all you will ever be"
A bloodline bound to treachery and flight
and traps my future in that last dinner

The wind outside it scrapes against the stone
a living world I've chosen to postpone
This trance is death a quiet, velvet kind
the slow decay of an imprisoned mind
To watch the past is not the same as life
it's just a turning of a rusted knife

This pane of glass it teaches you to hate
the world outside your own reflected stare
It offers lies of some perfected self
a flawless mask upon a dusty shelf
Each flaw you find becomes a brand new chain
To hold you close, to sanctify your pain

A flicker then, to a sun-scorched Gethsemane
The master's gone, his body turned to myth
they fled/like birds from a dead tree
But I, his blood, wait for his return
when He calls the names of all the dead and gone
and finds nobody in the silent, eternal dawn"
