i_am_time_grown_old
lacunas coil krisna,
the sign told me what to do
when time grew old,
but it never told me where to go
when the world dissoluded into nothing.

hare,
you take up all the space on the snake
and devi refuses to rub my feet
you asked me to love you
and yet you have left me with nothing

visnu,
i have percieved your nine earthly forms
and i await the tenth to come
will cauclin, the white rider,
spare a lost soul like me?

krisna,
please forgive me
i am just looking for the Way
but the tree stands with its roots in the air,
and the current drags me away

hare,
when does the dawn fall?
i see your many arms,
i see my self in you
yet i am scared and lonely

visnu,
the cosmic waters bathe my soar skin
the lotus emerges from your button,
but when does the night cease to be,
and the world truly begin?

oh krisna!
i saw you when you climbed that tree,
with the maiden's clothes in hands.
aye, they broke their vow and mingled with the river,
but their beauty did you wrong

oh hare!
the lord of the beasts dances tonight,
rudra wishes your attendance
my lord siva sings his songs
summoning our dissolution

oh visnu!
holy one, the sustainer of life
please birth me from your multiple wombs
and allow kali, the horror, to raise me
in her bloodstained, but kind, arms.

we follow the mist where it goes
yet the eternal is never aware
of its eternalness
the ants may mark in a parade,
but i loose a hair per one of your lives.
i summon thee oh indra,
slayer of the dragon,
and agni,
the sacrifice!,
when i am alone and afraid
what do i fear,
for nothing is but i?
in this time between dreams
in this sleep without end
in this circle of death and redeath,
where is the haven to drink from?

into the night i prithee,
into the night and to freedom!
break down the gates,
let me ride free
to starvation and freedom!

as the days go on
the night without end
my lives come into my mind.
that tiger, she was hungry
and so i offered my self,
slit my throat,
to be her meal that night.

oh and i feel so awake
i am standing at the edge of the cave
inside you all see the mere shadows,
but here, here, i am on the pinacle
the axis mundi lays before me!
and so, in my mind, i travell
up and down this divided line
teaching my teachings
and smiling my smiles...

but oh krisna,
where do i go when time grows old?
