Run; gasping as he breathes
Air forms the noose that chokes as he pleads
Coward; stain of the earth
Clamor in fear
Mind racing knowing that no one will hold him dear
He wanders into the forest
With only the owl and his will to find a way
The snow erodes the life around him
And it’s getting colder every day
And I would search for you
Over and over, again and again
As fear hold my senses
I’ll walk the path to find it again
And I would search for you
Over and over, again and again
Run; gasping as he breathes
Abandons truth for his needs
Hands bleed once again
His blood runs cold against the frozen sands
He wonders why he wears this crown of thorns
Perhaps a prince of wrath he’s been born
And it’s getting colder every day
And I would search for you
Over and over, again and again
As fear holds my senses
I’ll walk the path to find it again
And I would search for you
Over and over, again and again

Enigma
04:54

The haze exhumes his path
He finds his way, for death to meet his wrath
Where the days are gone and his time has passed
Faceless trees will weep and laugh
As he drives his blade from out his back
(Out his back)
The enigma of rage drives his way
The enigma of rage drives his blade
Sorrows no more felt in his pain
His sorrows are dulled by the edge of his blade
He feels fear turn to rage
Twists the knife; turns the page
He abandons love; his mind a stage
He abandons blood; he turns the page
He turns the page
Passion before principle
He lusts for the blood responsible
(The one who carries away)
Fire of his heart ignited
Misery and sorrow dulled
His senses become tunneled
Abandoned angles gaze from treetops
Observing the struggle of the mortal flame
The cold erodes the life around him
But the flame even faster burns it away
He feels fear turn to rage
Twists the knife; turns the page
He abandons love; his mind a stage
He abandons blood; he turns the page
He turns the page
Is he responsible for the blood on his hands
When the blood burned his bridges into ashes and sand?
Is he to blame for the shame in his head
Or should he twist the knife harder until all is quiet again?

Sentinels

Fate’s call looming; wanting
Thoughts haunting; left wandering
Fate’s call draws near; cruel snow
Frail wings; last breath
Sentinels of light, do you look down on him?
Solitary in your presence
Yet myriad surround him
(I am not whole; lost in the woods)
Sentinels of light, are you just as cold?
Stars fleck the sky
But not one could guide him home
(I am not whole; lost in the woods)
Can you see the stars weeping?
Constellation, roam free
Can you see the path; guideless
Take it back again
Sentinels of light, do you look down on him?
Solitary in your presence
Yet myriad surround him
(I am not whole; lost in the woods)
Sentinels of light, are you just as cold?
Stars fleck the sky
But not one could guide him home
(I am not whole; lost in the woods)

Renaissance; rebirth
No time to mourn
He finds his way, his sorrows reborn
He finds his way from sentinel’s scorn
Along the way he finds his path
Along the way he takes it back
Along the way he finds his path
Along the way he takes it back
Bleak illumination guides his path
Where no soul can follow past
Embers of those connected to him
Drift away in the winds of the time that’s passed
Drifting apart between a mindful haze
Underneath the weeping angel’s gaze
Oak and cedar splinter
Beneath his soul’s crippling wintеr
Burn the bridge
Bury the bladе
Burn
(The cold erodes the life around him)
His path is a seed of hope for another day
(The cold erodes the life around him)
His path is a seed to feel whole again
Renaissance; rebirth
No time to mourn
He finds his way, his sorrows reborn
He finds his way from sentinel’s scorn
Along the way he finds his path
Along the way he takes it back
And I would search for you
Over and over, again and again
As fear holds my senses
I’ll walk the path to find it again
And I would search for you
Over and over, again and again
Burn the bridge
Bury the blade
Burn the bridge
Bury the blade
Burn
(The cold erodes the life around him)
His path is a seed of hope for another day
(The cold erodes the life around him)
His path is a seed to feel whole again
Renaissance; rebirth
No time to mourn
He finds his way, his sorrow’s reborn
He finds his way from sentinel’s scorn
Along the way he finds his path
Along the way he takes it back
And I would search for you
Over and over, again and again
As fear holds my senses
I’ll walk the path to find it again
And I would search for you
Over and over, again and again
As fear holds my senses
I’ll walk the path to find it again
And I would search for you
Over and over, again and again
As fear holds my senses
I’ll walk the path to find it again
And I would search for you
Over and over, again and again
As fear holds my senses
I’ll walk the path to find it again
