Darkness floods my eyes

Without so much as a warming touch

Concentric circles of time

Have turned and gone like a fleeting song

Where are all the things I knew?

When once the sun became the moon,

Now shines into an empty room

Breathing

Shallow breathing

Angel of the burning sky

With trumpets loud amidst the shifting clouds

Where does salvation lie?

I sought for it far past the wandering stars

Life is naught but hell disguised

A fever dream built on lies

Where all the fools become the wise

Reason

Empty reason

I can see when I close my eyes

The world I knew was blind

I can see when I close my eyes

The world I've left behind

I can see when I close my eyes

Where the truth tries to hide

I can see when I close my eyes

Eternity dwells inside
