[Intro] [distorted synth bass, lo-fi drum machine kick] [record scratch] [low monk-like chant in background: “Seraph… Seraph…”] [Verse 1] [distorted male vocals] I saw bright lights around me My father was before me, before me Bombed Gianni’s vessel deep into these waters [high-pitched metallic synth lead enters] You have come for me… you have come for me [record scratch] [crunchy snare enters] [Verse 2] I led a righteous life Oh, you are not one of them But you are my guide… my path-beater To the next incarnation I have done my time here, haven’t I? You are not one of them [glitchy synth transition] [Verse 3] These waters… these waters Trouble we knew The Seraph they seek to raise Malignant treasure locked away We kept it subdued with prayer and blade [heavy distortion swell] Marco… infected with madness Violent mind, but not yet the power [record scratch] [Bridge] [Lara’s voice – cooler, drier, slightly echoed] That was gunfire, old man I think it was them who got taken away by it What are you doing here with Marco Bartoli? [Monk – weaker, fading] Nothing… I led a righteous life Now I’m here to prevent his son… from salvaging the Seraph One not to be stopped by any amount of head bowing [Verse 4] [distorted male vocals return, more broken] Brother Chan Barkhang… my life’s work Cleansing of our prayers… keeping it subdued He breathed life back into ancient belief And now again it is here Infected with madness… infected with madness [Outro] I have done my time here I have done my time here [tape stop effect] [final low whisper] …Marco… [distorted synth bass fades into distant monastery bells and water sounds]
