Metamorphosis
1. The Chant
Guide me through this,
guard my path through the darkness,
lead me through the passages of finity
redeeming me from bounds that chained me
into this mandatory circular motion
between the fire and becoming free from gravity.
Liberate me.
Take me past the borderlines.
Dissipate me, break these walls that can confide
Purify me, bind these wounds that wouldn't heal.
Obliterate me, drain me out of misery.
Suffocate me, choke the air out from these flames.
Elevate me and overcome this gravity
2. Passage
From ashes I'm reborn, through fire inside me.
As I have taken all down, raging flood purges all.
Not life or death could hold me from my providence.
Eternal passage through life by an changing form.
From ashes I have rised, spreading wings,
I'm reborn, like raging flood purges all,
I am now complete, take me home.
3. Zahir
This time around I won't hide behind my walls I built
Through time and all oceans tide.
Walls fall down, drowning atrophy in this tidal residue.
Come wash away this ferocious gravity reclaiming me from you.
In despair for far too long I've torn myself apart.
No more. I will heal as soon as pain allowes me to breathe.
From despair I've found hope, from this hope I found peace.
To let go, to let you rest in peace
4. The Ghosts Among Me
A cold embrace of this fading recollection.
Was it worth it, all the pain and isolation?
Never known why it's such requisite task
to cling on to this burden,
did it make you any stronger?
They still haunt me
The words that never left me
"They never sleep, the ghosts inside me"
Now that you have thrived in desired aspiration
Desperation hides intrinsic contradiction:
True complacency only comes from self desctruction
Such a burden was never meant to be carried alone
Bursting flames could never reach so high to tough you,
nor could sun set so low to ever reach you
5. Province
As the night falls, I roam through these distant lands.
Lost and bleeding, reaching out for an escape.
Sleepwalking part the field across the treelines
where life flourished I was stunned and left for dead.
As the night goes on I roam these distant shores,
ocean holds me close.
Beyond these faded tracks there can still be hope.
From these narrow roads I was searching for a plave to rest
but from this town by lake I found my soul instead
6. Beneath the Waves
7. Last Breath
As I'm barely breathing, escaping from surface,
hold the light that guides me so I can ascend.
Grind and polish this stone,
watch it take it's true form.
Grind and polish this stone so it can hold the light
building this temple one stone at a time.
On this mind's altar I stand
Still alive
