lyrics

I breathe fear before the coming storm-
Its thunderous wrath petrifies me,
And the chaos baffles.
In Eden so tranquil,
Yet perturbed in the final hour,
And left me so desolate-
All my kingdom to waste.
And for the sake of all:
Sacrament, for springs of wealth
To overflow and wash out;
To clear way for new roots.
And, in the midst of puzzlement, I strike out
With hopes of better days and swifter clouds,
Though so far from my sanity.
What once was lost,
And in aeons reclaimed,
Yet once more spirited away,
But not to abandon.

At long last I reach the great expanse preceding the betrayal.
I shiver and gasp at the stark tranquility,
Only now realizing the dread burden laid upon me
As it melts away.
Tossed and forgotten;
Lost to memories not even mine.
I question my perception now,
Through such great time,
As if to ostracize and judge myself.
The waters rise,
And still I cling to my own wrongs.

Deep roots and shallow skies;
Branches tethered to the sea;
Winds shutter from shoulder to shoulder;
Hands lifted high in feeble surrender.
