Tartaros - Dark Age lyrics

The most merciful thing in the world

Some day the piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up-
New dark age

The most merciful thing in the world
I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents
We live on a placid island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity
And it was not meant that we should voyage far
The sciences, each straining in its own direction, have hitherto harmed us little
But some day the piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality
And of our frightful position therein
That we shall either go mad from the revelation
Or flee from the deadly light into the peace and safety
Of a new dark age

That we shall either go mad from the revelation
Or flee from the deadly light into the peace and safety
Of a new dark age

New dark age
