Lyrics
Neither non-being was
Nor being was then
Neither the realm of space
Nor the sky beyond
At the dawn of time
Under the horns of The Ure
In the vast depths of Khaos
The solitary Twin has roamed
Neither was death
Nor the immortal then
Nor was there the torch
Of night nor of day
The ending must come
That beginning might be
In the name of Truth
I sacrifice myself
The blade enters the flesh
The necessity of opposites
I dismember my reflection
The Order is established
My flesh becomes the Earth
The Sun was born from my eye
I shine like a star beyond darkness
I am the first mortal King to die
I abide in a radiant hall of death
Where the shadows entwine
