You know that the fog is here omnipresent When the diseaser sees no cure You know that the fog is here omnipresent When the intents remain obscure Forevermore Weave us of mist Fog weaver Hide us in shadows Unfathomable wall-less maze A secular haze You know that his son is near omnipotent When she sees eye to eye with spears You know that his son is near omnipotent When youth and innocence disappear Forever lost Weave us of mist Fog weaver Hide us in shadows Unfathomable, wall-less maze A secular haze He is divinity omniscient Seeing the world revolve with spite The surge of humanity oblivious To the divine bringeth light Let there be night Weave us of mist Fog weaver Hide us in shadows Fog weaver Come mist eternal Come mist eternal Come secular haze
