bring forth the light to raise colonies
in a single cleansing breath
don't sleep my queen the sun rises one less time than it will set
ow overhead the stars that guided our forebears have turned to dust
and underfoot the churning framework of this earth succumbs to rust
bring forth the light
these footsteps take precedence as the traffic sounds fade
and this city's lungs has purged their last breath
I'm a captive of the curb before the wolves in wait
where i pledge myself to uncertainty
from this shattered breaking point
each new step must end
othing short of the sadists that absorb ?
in search of that fleeting adversity of a merciless emptiness
that used to possess me
so i'm following stardust
what's left of the twilight
to get to that last jagged line
to the edge of the earth by the date of my birth
after 26 years I'm reclaiming what's mine
take in the thinning air
part with a cleansing breath
take in the thinning air
part with a cleansing breath
colonies collapse under their own weight
drifting all across more dead deserts
dreaming the souls of the essence of our host
we post colonies overlooking the abyss
on a pilgrimage
spanning these vast spilled remains
chasing visions, in a ritual of names
with no stars to follow
a jagged map etched in bone
??
?? of overtone
let the lifelong procession of shadow commence
this is the start of something; here begins:
the end of the greatest lie
henceforth, i deny that i exist
