In a time of gone forgotten

 

Black the dark before the first dawn           

Black the delirium and the fury

 

Raged a wind so cold and cruel

 

Beneath the torment in the heavens

Beneath the everlasting storm

 

Came there flame and billowing sulphurs

Came there stench and vile chaos

 

In a time of gone forgotten

 

Wherein putrid ground did tremble

Wherein the roaring seas did boil

 

Raged a wind so cold and cruel

 

Above the moan of death in making

Above the sightless nowhere seen

 

Into the yawning bleeding squalor

Into the clawing malodorous birth

 

In a time of gone forgotten

Raged a wind so cold and cruel
