---

Bounding away from the silencing sleep,

The visions still fresh, the wounds still sear.

A shadow’s still looming near.

I must find my way out of here,

Nothing has become clear to me. Nothing at all.

From horrors and hells no other can share,

To unmatched pain and an absent stare.

Where have you gone my friend, I am so alone.

Abandoned me they did, left me for dead.

Cast me out to rot and bleed a sea of red,

All those motherfuckers did.

Why did you run away from dreadful memories?

They will not stop and will always find you.

So seek the monolith, the city of tombs,

Celestial seer ensconced in doom.

Take my rage, my agony, and my despair.

Take away the painful feelings ‘cause I can’t stand them.

My heart is twisting, but I live on

I cannot stop so crawl through the cinders.

Where is my guiding light, my shining moon light?

Lead me to the end that I long for.

To free my soul sing slowly the elegy of illumination.

Sing the elegy.

The broken pieces of myself are crumbling

Into my hands, through my fingers.
