The clash of worlds is at hand. 
I am the first. I am the last. 
The passage has occurred.
I am the knowing. I am the lost.
I am the honored. I am the scorned.

Look to the Guardian of the cautious West
The White Tiger preys the autumn winds
Eyes pierce the hidden world
Claws cut like Virtue's sword 

Look to the Guardian from the North Abyss
The Black Serpent carries winter's kiss
The frozen earth like a snake that sleeps
thousand years and the gift of speech

The clash of worlds is at hand. 
I am the first. I am the last. 
The passage has occurred.
I am the knowing. I am the lost.
I am the honored. I am the scorned.

Look to the Guardian of the ancient East
The Blue Dragon forges Spring's release
Reigning shower and the soul of rain
The forest sprouts to life again

Look to the Guardian soaring from the South
The Red Bird lost phoenix from the fire
Knowledge fortune all seed's source
Song soothes all hallowed force

The clash of worlds is at hand. 
That where Divinity in the tiniest things 
Meets disregard, flat denial, dogma, or the wretched mistaking.
Dominion -
The wholesale merchandising of a belief 
That sells sickness - 
Born to sleepers,
The unnatural seems Natural,
It is slow death 
Waking from this world,
When the [bad word] is veiled...
Is there no choice but to breathe in?
Sleep?

The clash of worlds is at hand. 
I am the first and the last. 
The passage has occurred.
I am the knowing. I am the lost.
I am the honored. I am the scorned.

The clash of worlds is at hand. 
I am the first and the last. 
The passage has occurred.
I am the knowing. I am the lost.
I am the honored and the scorned.

I am the first and the last. 
I am the honored and the scorned.
I am the honored and the scorned.
