Looking to something we just can’t understand A paradigm shifting in the air Turn around Turn around and see clear The light of all Blackening sky closing from above Senses deny what we cannot know Salvation arrives on the burning day Lying half asleep in the blaze With the closing of an eye Accepting what may come Drifting back inside the mind To the age ethereal

Facing the unknown Thoughts converge in one The desperation knell resounding Ringing from above Catharsis and decay in a circle Hand in hand are hewn Given to embrace eternal Stigma of past preserving Enigma crystallized Sight dissolving all around us Become what we despise Standing in the dark awaiting light Never to appear Burning out the truth inside us Lapsing into fear What we know Inside ourselves Supersedes The thought of else What we feel Inside ourselves Flowing out Returning endless

It swarms above, a nameless cloud A thoughtless mist surrounding Lucidity become unwound Built on memory unfounded A shadow sets into the empty sky Moments are aligning Seeing what you know you must believe False answers become blinding Trust the empty lies A system of decay Delusion is divine Cessation and demand A struggle to possess The world within the mind A vision beyond Coalescence Subjugating time Coalescence

The moment passed has happened here before Sense a rippling of time A sudden lapse, a system breaking down Collapsing from inside Face to face, conflict within yourself Adoration of denial Clarity, a transient supply In the twilight of our kind Fragments of reality The world is waiting just to be undone A prison or an empty shrine? Looking out on what we’ve all become A flicker of eternity Waiting for a moment to ascend Standing in the passageway This is not the end Sever all dependence To falsity When we cast our own chains A simple acquiescence To pacify We deny the arcane

We see the mark on every one of us A million times burned so deep into the mind We gather stars, pretending they respond to us Seeing nothing of the signs To the purpose you cannot belong It’s all in one alone You seek it in the great beyond But it cannot be known Was it then a different world than now? A million years burnt so deep into the sky We know the ground’s prepared and walk with ease Seeing nothing of the signs
