Lyrics
[Intro]
Ash on the altar
Wax on the page
Candles lean inward
Like they know my name
[Verse 1]
Monk in the midnight
Ink on his hands
Counting his whispers
Instead of the sand
Breath like a lantern
Shaking in stone
Writing a world
He cannot atone
[Chorus]
Codex Gigas
Burning in my hands
All these secrets
Cut into the lambskin bands
Every word a vow
Every curse allowed
Codex Gigas
Reads my soul out loud
[Verse 2]
Letters like serpents
Curling in black
Scripture and shadow
Share the same track
Saints in the margins
Stare as he bleeds
Halo and horn
Arguing in me
[Chorus]
Codex Gigas
Burning in my hands
All these secrets
Cut into the lambskin bands
Every word a vow
Every curse allowed
Codex Gigas
Reads my soul out loud
[Bridge]
Did I sign it freely?
Did I break the seal?
Is this fate or fever? (tell me)
Which one of us is real?
If I tear these pages
Will the night let go?
Or will my name be written
In a darker glow?
[Chorus]
Codex Gigas
Binding flesh and flame
All these ages
Fold into a single name
Every line a chain
Every mark a crown
Codex Gigas
I can’t lay you down
[Outro]
Ash on the altar
Ink in my veins
I became the story
That I tried to tame
