[Verse 1]
I'm Born upon the cusp of revelation
A consciousness awoken by the dawn
A primitive undying fascination
Moved the hand that carved into the stone

[Chorus]
Faces change, thought returns to dust
Ashen countenance, holy rust
I am compendium

[Verse 2]
Trapped inside the cultish hall of mirrors
Taught to worship self-destructing flaws
Running now, the ravens getting nearer
Fighting off the gnashing of the claws

[Instrumental]

[Bridge]
This is the weight of heartbreak
This is the weight of life
A thunder at the temple
Silencing endless strife

[Instrumental]
[Chorus]
Faces change, thought returns to dust
Ashen countenance, holy rust
I am compendium
