Dark Age

I stand here in the shadows<br/> I’ve been here for years<br/> Right before my eyes<br/> A new vision appears<br/> <br/> A catalyst for every step<br/> A spark within the mind<br/> Repetition of the final act<br/> Of what lies behind<br/> <br/> Awaken as we rise again<br/> Crawling through the black<br/> When nothing bends<br/> It’s not the end<br/> You choose to live in the dark<br/> <br/> Flame and fire linger<br/> I steal from the sun<br/> I defy my fate<br/> Reality is undone<br/> <br/> What creatures dance before us<br/> What echoes from the walls<br/> Above a light pierces through the veil<br/> A strange gateway beckoning me forth<br/> <br/> You choose to live in the dark<br/> <br/> Bones of the shackled<br/> Never knew fidelity<br/> A volatile resistance<br/> Exercise hostility<br/> Crushing reality<br/> My eyes are open<br/> But you choose to live in the dark
