Spinning Webs, Catching Dreams

Oh bear witness as my time draws to an end

My mentor's voice beckons me, "follow me and be saved"

Fear and trembling have seized hold of what's left of me

Through morphine haze I see him

Spinning webs, catching dreams

In this darkest of times

Arise and be reborn

Take my hand

I will lead you from this plane

And to eternity

I've made no peace for beyond

Reason was ever my pride

My restless thoughts are dancing on blades of doubt

Cold reason alone was always my way

But now death is near

Trembling and in tears

Weak and ashamed

To right and left unknown road

Esoteric dread

Slithering voice anoint unto me

Poison and life one the same

What other hope have I?

My heart is hard and cold

Here I am, a will for your machine

The first atop this hill
