This is the end
Where earth meets the sky
You will find me
I leave behind the burden of sleep
to succeed in becoming a king
Driven by a desire for eternal life
Weak - Mortal men made of sand
Fail in their attempts for conquest
We are all gods
You will follow me, you will follow us there

Cursed

We are contaminated from the inside out
Frozen in time our minds begin to create
Boundless Space contained from every direction
Our worst fears realized but we continue on
Marching to the beat of the drum
We stand to face all who deceive and destroy
Identity ignored
The nameless walk alone
Faces blur
Memory lost
The light of day escapes and we come to darkness
The night sky burns bright with flashes of light
Tonight, we are saviors cursed to fall under the weight of the world
For we are the ones who will rise to regain control
They will not take away our true potential

As we speak, words fail to make but a whisper
The rhythmic waves leave me in trance and crash
over us with out a moments glance
They've come to take me away
They've send me home
Tonight we speak in silence
Our last moment captured in thought
Here is where we make our last stand
This is the end of everything we know
Still I can see the stars tonight
They watch over us with broken light
Organic form, burning fast
Sparks swirling, illuminating the sky
We are off course and out of sight
Our guide disappears into the night
and darkness swallows us whole
May we remember our way home
we are but strangers following the unknown
Away
We sail away into the night
to places not meant to be seen
Far out at the edge of the sea
We fight!
We die by the light of the stars
We die at the hands of the beast
Never to return from the deep
Far out at the edge of the sea
The sea returns to take me away
The sea returns to me home
Here is where we make our last stand

The Final Farewell
06:28

Desire for your embrace
Enchantment takes hold
Leave me gasping for air
Longing for more
Tonight, while I slumber
Neath the quiet hum
Mere footsteps speak of splendor
Tomorrow bring my love to me
Pale skin shimmers in the night
Eyes closed with wonder
Arms caress with tenderness
Your body is mine tonight.
Together we rise
Under the moonlit sky
Fixated on the darkness
Echoes that no longer return
Carry on to be lost and never heard again
The strongest foundation begins to crack
Lay beside you motionless in the moonlight
Still you sleep with thoughts benign
Ghost of a man inside
Left behind
Empty of form and removed of shape
Bounded by gray, bounded by gray
In the distance, a voice is faintly heard
I see you walk away never to return again
