Leviathan Lyrics

Sunrise is hours away
Precious seconds of life
Drift away
Unnoticed yet perfect
Slowly disappearing
I have found the edge
Have I found the answer?
Truth is my weapon
Your anger not enough
I wish to be alone
With my God
Moving through black waters
Leviathan
I wish to be alone
With my god
Have I found the answer?
The currents ebb and flow
Rising to the surface
From untold depth
Have I found the answer?
The currents ebb and flow
This fragile human condition
And cold necesity of death
Solitary and noble
Clarity briefly

[Solo- J.M.]

Your breathing
Is my breathing
Your blood
Is my blood
I wish to be alone with my God
I am always part of you
Secret one precious one
Dying a death so tender
Don't fear thy exorcist
Drift away
The currents ebb and flow

Cover art for Leviathan lyrics by Akercocke

a man waiting for Satan, his god, to appear to him in the form of Leviathan, the serpent.

I interpret it as divine understanding and commitment to life, even unto death. The currents' ebbing and flowing are the ever-rolling "tides" of life. Leviathan may be interpreted as what is most precious to the adorer.

I may be over-analyzing, however. It may just be a ritual to Leviathan.

I also think that when it says truth is my weapon your anger not enough, maybe its someone describing the truth that God isn't so great and that the person that is being told to is a Christian who is angered by such a suggestion.
