[Lyric] Miles Before I Sleep (Great Cold Emptiness)

[Verse 1]
The city of Aes descended from the Sky
Ages and ages I have wandered
Looking through every library and every chasm in search
For the lost book of the eternal age

[Verse 2]
I seek my own immortality
For I cannot live to wander more
Who am I to grasp at such wisdom

[Verse 3]
Through the caves in the west
And the forgotten towns in the deserts
The highest peaks
Soaring
The lowest depths
Howling

[Verse 4]
The deepest of waters
Thе haunting silence of time
Havе I become the oneironaut
Dancing past the waters of Mournfell
Or diving underneath the waves of R'lyeh
I seek my own demise
I follow my own path to self-destruction

[Verse 5]
I am the keeper of the esoteric
The lonely cultist and his dusted grimoire
Of forgotten wisdom
I have become a lost soul howling in the bleak vistae of space
Wandering through empty fields of knowledge
Searching endlessly through ink laden cacophony

[Verse 6]
Who am I to follow the cult of the hedon
If I am the only thing that is to be certain
Who am I to follow the will of the masses
Lest I tread my own path through the wood
And rest at my home near the sea

Alas, I am only so far away
And there are many miles before I sleep
