Born from inside the core, an emblem Of warmth breaths into my dreams A shadow The realm made of liquid light still hides Behind the demon of the sky Eternal Cold night, waiting for a sign Revealed under the moonlight Frost bite slowly entering My skin peals as I give in I am an ancient prophet I see the cosmic mysteries They called for me when darkness struck at the midst of the day The bitter fools, they could not see how they lost their way Asking why all seemed to fade They fall to their knees and ask for grace I seize the opportunity To lift this curse and by all be seen Knowing how the stars were made by the one all call wise My hands reach up to the sky and tremble as mountains fall As the last beam of light failed to touch the ground The ancient one spoke in a frightening roar Defying the skies, defying mankind His tongue as a lightning bolt The absence of light, a sign of his will Hidden death within his eyes The Master of Time He spoke to me in simple words as one wise Come and walk with me until your eyes Begin to see with clarity the secrets Of Life turned to tragedy A lament The Master's eyes reach inside and pull me under I now begin to see All that I had is lost Find a reason for the pain Rise beyond your broken heart I'm falling down Time's running out My mind's caving in, gone with total darkness Dropped in sea of solitude A desert meadow I cannot see locked down below I dove into the unknown My dying soul echoes beyond this frozen shadow Drawn to the sound of a voice I heard before I know where this road goes A field of sorrow that I've made my own The earth has swallowed all trace of light The sky is fading Beyond this reflective eye The stars awake I'm one with the ghost of mirrored failure A bleak persistence Deceptive reality shapes this tainted scene Still life paves this horrific dream Guide me across the flowing river of transmigration With the lotus my soul will find the way Acquaint me with eternity Invisible realms of intimacy The earth has swallowed all trace of light The sky is fading Beyond this reflective eye The stars awake Only seconds of total night The winds are changing Promised birth where shadows died I will drink from the fountain Drink and embrace this state of ecstasy A spiral of peace expands your understanding I'm dwelling in its eye, where energies unite Preserved from the storm of unbalanced duality Drink Embrace Dwell Hear Wake Rise To the call I've heard the sacred call And from a lifetime of sleep, I've awaken I've ascended the coiled hall Into celestial chambers made of ice and stone I will rise and not be the same For I am found within the wheel of perpetual change The eclipse has revealed my inner shades Will this lifted shadow free my shackled brain?
