Prologue
04:28
|

My soul is bound for the seas and sands of gold
Of a savage land to take what’s owed
Im bound for glory, this I know
From god to the true men its foretold
A gathering storm approaches from the north
Holdfast now, swim for the shore
Overwhelming waves crash over me
They show no mercy as they pick off the weak
And they’re gone but not me
Oh what hell has begun
Stay in motion the abyss calls us home
We’re going over, going under, below

Corridor

Lost to the ocean
Pulled to nowhere I can see
Caring not where this leads
Life and death the same
Brave the fear and return to instinct
Now that the choice is made
The concrete set
You're never going home
Traded all once loved for complete regret and a quiet desperate life

Denial
03:52
|
|||
Woke to the warm of the rust
Bleeding through the lids
Woke to wonder
Nobody somewhere or somebody nowhere
No outstretched hands
Just eyes from the top of the well

Temporal
04:39
|
|||
Claws in the neck, thorns in both feet
Swing and flail and choke on the defeat
They pushed you here
Ocean waves force back to shore
Horrid rain forced temporal tectonics to quake and shift
Now, forever, drinks with acid
Eats with sand, and sleeps with stone
Warms with rain, and breathes with salted fumes
Escape attempt from nature’s holding
An exchange from home to cave
With two shattered fists
This cave now home
Rains force temporal tectonics to quake

Autumn
05:07

I know what darkness brings
False hope and hollow dreams
When what I truly need
Some reprieve from this constant motion
Endless sounds recede bandwidth now
Body thins Colours leave Flesh stops clinging
Cold for months Getting thin
The endless cues to punch through this cavernous sky
To feel sunlight
Slow poison sinking in
Hard to find my way out again
Paid the price for my wants
Followed my heart and it lead me to ruin
Prayed for fire and I prayed for rain
Prayed for a death that never came, and now im lost
The suffering will end soon
Severed veins will push through caverned skies
To breathe sunlight

Acceptance
08:40
|
|||
Home is what you run from
Giving in isn’t giving up
Determined now to fight
Even after all was lost
The tides roll neither in, or roll out at night
A perfect moment of calm even with the coming storm
I will try to come when I am called
My only offering
Final chance to get things right
I am reborn
Transformed in the light
Rush out to embrace a saviour
Waist deep, answered praise with arrows
Vitals drain and sting as salts cauterize
Breaths stop with one last gasp of sunlight
Joy as blood flows into this no longer caverned sky
Peace and silence now
