The Groot Burial Riff: Part I

from The Groot Burial Riff by the Psychodox

/

about

Just a pun on "The Great Barrier Reef" and an excuse for me to do an almost 42 minute song, split into two parts.

lyrics

Near infinite years ago
Before the sand met the water
And the marionettes were far from ideal
To act on behalf of the slaughter
When all has bypassed the world
Far beyond condemnation
As the eyes sink not into skulls
Representative of desperation

The paradox breathes in death
The contradictor he is
The abstract is the one who tore
The world from this
And a rift opens

I am the Paradox
But not I am the Abstract
I am all of my time
World is cracked

Spanning the days of old
When before had no precursor
When after was indefinite
No need for the next nurser
Space and time became corrupt
Of the paradox I am not afraid
Allowance to traverse the future
And to trespass retrograde

Avoiding life
Avoiding death
Avoid the choke
Avoid the breath

If thine eyes refused to view
If thine ears refused to listen
If thine mouth refused to speak
The truth shall be slipping away...
The emptiness in time and space
The imminent fall from grace

The day you witness the battle of two
One will win and one shall fall to their doom
Crawling and writhing with the last shred of life
Ripped from its hands and set into flight

This space and time gig, it's almost like it's
Watching a Cerebrus
Burn Yggdrasil to the ground
Poseidon makes ash of the beast
And Odin strikes him down
Its like watching Hell freeze over
And then watching Heaven melt
Rewriting the laws of fate
With the newest cards they dealt

The sky fights the ground
And the earth dies down
Time never cared
Time couldnt spare (me)

I need to kill time
The illusion of misery
A beast that's always feeding
On souls and blackened hearts
Time is not the fondest part
Negative space is all to see
With the illusion of misery
The universe is not mindful
To your request for no reminder
Of everything you hated
Of time wished sedated
All space and time
Will hurt your mind
