Taken from "A Greater Good", the second album from Spanish purveyors of space prog doom rock/metal TodoMal.
Order at
Band would say _“Dust and Nothingness explores the nostalgia for the future—a future not too distant where someone very close (imagined here as your own child, real or imagined) will inevitably drift away, entering the whirlwind of the world. It resigns to the pain of letting someone go, fading into oblivion. The melodic leitmotif, reminiscent of old wall clocks, nods to time running against us. The practically unresolved ending serves as a prelude or introduction to the rest of the album’s tracks"_

LYRICS
The enemy is in you, my son
As you slide into obedience,
‘Cos we are dust and nothingness...
There’s no need for my sacrament
As you drift away indifferent
And where once was dust
There’s nothing left...
Your time with me will soon be gone
As you die in due expedience,
In a world of lust and viciousness
As you drift away indifferent
The enemy is in you, my son
In your world of mute indifference...
