My Negation - Dark Tranquillity

It's all this reeking ego craves

The sun to never set

Why do threads of anger never linger

Why does the ember turn to stone

To where the longing goes in

With the sins of old

A face of nothing

To never see as blind

As free

Everything I want is in the end of this

Everything I need will be the end of me

My negation

Will you know my name

And sense the danger coming

My negation

Can you see my face

What's to become of me

The art of reduction

Stripped down through what seems defendable

Scaled to bare revisions to stop making sense

Levelling pillars of towering fear

Rational instincts and insight to spare

End of falseness

End of grace

Everything I fear is in this failing

Nothing of what I am is in this end

My negation

Will you know my name

And sense the danger coming

My negation

Can you see my face

What's to become of me

Will you know my name
