The Sonic Sigilum

Verse 1

Nail strikes on a coffin lid

The first worm burrows deep

Ancient tongues in shadow hid

Where the tired martyrs sleep

Pre-Chorus

Roots are tangled in my veins

My heart is slowing to a crawl

No one ever breaks the chains

Of the dark that claims us all

Chorus

سش لاش (Sash lash)

سري تلا (Seri tala)

The choir starts to breathe

اي سش لا (Ai sash la)

The silence starts to seethe

Ground is whispering back at last

Through the cracks of every grave

The current age has joined the past

There is no soul left to save

Verse 2

Your shadow starts to peel away

Ribcage xylophone plays a hollow tune

Turning night back into day

Under a black and bitter moon

Pre-Chorus

Teeth are grinding bone to meal

The piano plays a spine

Now the fractured spirit will kneel

To the water turned to brine

Chorus

سش لاش (Sash lash)

سري تلا (Seri tala)

The choir starts to breathe

اي سش لا (Ai sash la)

The silence starts to seethe

Ground is whispering back at last

Through the cracks of every grave

The current age has joined the past

There is no soul left to save

Bridge

سش لا سكر (Sash la sakar)

Wine is spray

Life is gray

End is here

The wine turns to arterial spray

Nothing stays

Lost the ways

End the fear

Chorus

سش لاش (Sash lash)

سري تلا (Seri tala)

The choir starts to breathe

اي سش لا (Ai sash la)

The silence starts to seethe

Ground is whispering back at last

Through the cracks of every grave

The current age has joined the past

There is no soul left to save

Post-Chorus

سش لا سك (Sash la sak)

سش لا سك (Sash la sak)

سش لا سك (Sash la sak)

Words are losing all their weight

Inside the dark and final gate

Just a skull on marble steps

As the hollow ocean wept

Forgotten
