lyrics

Lost monuments in the sleeping sands
A forbidden monolith wrought by sleepless hands
Scattered ruins amongst the weeping lands
Looming mountain shatters the desolate wastelands

Looming doom blankets the landscape in dark
While the sophic man tears his dreams apart
Soaring through purple skies to reach the apex; the centre of worlds
I will remain til the weave unfurls

I am awaiting solace
Not found where the way-seers lie
I am awaiting divinity
Not captured by the all-seeing eye

I have awoken a purpose, in me
To walk the plains and breathe
The air of sanctity
I cannot walk these ruins alone
I cannot climb this mountain all on my own

Oh.. the swirling winds ensorcell me
And take me to where the mayflowers grow
Is this the apex, the centre of worlds?
Or just an image, projected til the weave unfurls...

I have crossed the rivers
That lead only to blackened fields
I have walked the sleeping sands
Where my journey was revealed

I have witnessed the death of all worlds
One thousand times over

I have seen the end
Written in fire across the sky
Yet still I shall walk these shores
Aimless and suffocated
