Temple Of Light And Darkness

Written in pictures on the walls
There were engravings made by foreign people
If they would come somehow to life
Maybe they could have seen across the riddles

All secrets hidden
All answers lost
Behind engravings from the past

Each chamber bigger than the last
Imposing nothingness on smaller beings
The columns that might reach the sky
Surpassing each and every single limit

All secrets hidden
All answers lost
Between the vastness of those halls

Temple for the light and darkness
Built by the gods to watch the sky
Control the possible mistakes
That could occur and alter life

There sit an old astronomer
Entrusted with a sacred task
A watchman for the endless blue
That holds above the glowing stars

They found him in a hidden room
Gasping for breath, tied to the bone
They gave him food and water too
So he could tell about his role
