Here - beneath starlight,
Dismay shatters the stained glass silence
Staring blankly upon the source of disillusion
Ripped from sleep and bound by truth
Fire grips the mind,
Enrapturing the divine,
Eradicating hope adrift,
In cold waters
A defeated voice resounding it's pain
From a lost destiny to reclaim
We search the dark for light,
And follow in fading footprints
We endure the cold black abyss,
And find new light within it's depths
Embark upon this journey,
To be entrapped within a lie,
For the past is not as it seems,
The distant memories are never clear
Reflect the past - in crimson tears
Without need for redirection.
We shall repeat the cycle again
Beneath the fading light,
Perpetual flame to ignite
The dripping words,
Cast from forked tongues,
Ignite fiery lakes,
Within weakened hearts
The audience applauds,
A masterful performance,
But the night has just begun
We stab at the sky,
Please do not cry
Soon you shall be with your Christ
And you'll know his pain
