Should I blame the fate I so often evoke?

These thoughts of loathing I tend to provoke

Am I letting these feelings endure to cause the need

To get used to modern lines?

We'll entirely complete this version of us

No stories untold nor plans to fulfill

I speak my mind and confess what it feels

To drown in oaken eyes

They wander unchallenged

They lurk and swallow the silence

They darken the dawn, the false sunlight

So we seek comfort under their shade

They wander, they lurk, they darken the dawn

They're calling

They die and reborn from dust

But remain broken

You can cover your eyes, scream your lungs out

Or lower your voice and pray so they fade out

But the ivory tower is now destroyed

And our walls torn down and their pieces gone

They wander unchallenged

They lurk and swallow the silence

They darken the dawn

So we seek comfort under their shade

They wander

They lurk

They darken the dawn

They burn within me

They feel our sorrow

They turn towards the sky

Then bleed into the night

They grow through dusty stone

And leave their trace along their way

They mourn forsaken names

Condemned to embrace the older graves
