At the seething and fiery centernHe sits upon his ebon thronenWithin his halls of darknessnWhich no man has seen and survived the visionnnBoth blind and bereft of mindnHe pipes unceasingly on his reed flutenAnd the notes that rise and fall in measured patternsnAre the foundations of all the worldsnEver calculating in sound the structure of space and timennWere his flute ever to suddenly fall silentnAll the spheres would shatter into one anothernAnd the myriads of worldsnWould be unmadenAs they were before creationnnThe flute of the blind idiotnBoth makes and unmakes the worlds in ceaselessnCombinationsnSpinning on the woven carpet of timennNo creation without destructionnNo destruction without creationnnTo unmake a thing is to make anothernEach time a thing is madenAnother is destroyednn[solo: Dallas]nnThe idiot god on his black thronenDoes not choosenWhat shall rise into beingnAnd what should pass awaynHe cares only to maintainnHis mindless unholy music ofnRandom creation and destructionnnNo living creature can look upon his facenAnd endure its terrible heatnAnd black radiancenThat is like the reverberating unseen rays of molten ironnWhich strike and burn the skinnOf those who would darenGaze into the countenance of the idiot godnnNever does he receive supplicantsnIn his black halls of uncouth angles and strange doorsnNor does he ever hear prayers or answer themnEndlessly he pipesnAnd endlessly he devours his own substancenFor his hunger is insatiablenAs he consumes his own wastes after the custom of idiotsnnAs the god createsnSo he destroys
