We’re at the shores of time Our wings fall to our sides Will we find a home? Amidst this dark, ancient cold Lesser lived fragments Of the once shattered dream Play as notes in the melody Of the hope that I used to keep Father told me To listen to the words of One To repent my sins And give unto Him Weep beside this oak Lend your tears to the bark Cry a silent storm As draws near your doom Keep your eyes trained closely On these movements made in haste Weaponizing thought into fire Until all has been erased This flame, a candle at the base of the bonfire The caricatures of gods lit the dusk of man A dirge shatters the morning The pallor ivory white Of your stone dead prophet His wrists drained cold Wounds as jagged as the mountains Etched in holy skin In the mire of tears descends An overseer of torment I saw the nightfall A chalice of vapor Poured into my soul The onyx embrace A phantasma’s mist Graced my shoulder Shone in rays on my face The beauty of the burning sun The crest breaks at the dawn Seething in the wake of ebony tide Drift away in the quiet waters Lose your face and drown with the others An oceanic grievance Drew me to the sands below Damn thyself not To the agony of ebony tides I see your suffering I see your regret But it is my place To rest with the Drowned 'Tis a place of torment A torture beyond eternity Scars lain deep Join us not, the Drowned I will leave you be Oh Drowned To sink without My presence The boughs of these hills Sing their longing to me
