Reliquary
Reveal to the guiding hand as it falls to expose the will to the words that speak through years
The veneer of time
These failures upheld while eyes are rent from dream by altared vision
After and after
Image riven from dust
Given forth to sight
An offering returned
Return to youth
Return to failure
In waste
In vain
See now
See now
In waste
In vain
A lifetime of vision is blindness
Deceiving the image with shadow upon shadow
See now exposed
See now revealed
Beyond time and light
The hand is bound
Unto the heart
Beyond the eye
Beyond the dream
The hand will reach
To guide or fall
To grasp the lie of light
The will inert
The eyes lost
Words fall silent
Tongues held in wait
Futile demand
Failure upheld
See now
See now
All I've ever known
Secede to me so that I may taste these fruits of all I've made
Hold me down to choke upon the body of these rotten labours
Resisting fallen wraiths in hostile whisper
A missive to grace, a revelation to a burdened soul
See now that dark and light have always been as one
Lies told to choices made belief as I lie still
Blind me and I'll wander
The veneer of time
These failures upheld while eyes are rent from dream by altared vision
After and after
Image riven from dust
Given forth to sight
An offering returned
Return to youth
Return to failure
In waste
In vain
See now
See now
In waste
In vain
A lifetime of vision is blindness
Deceiving the image with shadow upon shadow
See now exposed
See now revealed
Beyond time and light
The hand is bound
Unto the heart
Beyond the eye
Beyond the dream
The hand will reach
To guide or fall
To grasp the lie of light
The will inert
The eyes lost
Words fall silent
Tongues held in wait
Futile demand
Failure upheld
See now
See now
All I've ever known
Secede to me so that I may taste these fruits of all I've made
Hold me down to choke upon the body of these rotten labours
Resisting fallen wraiths in hostile whisper
A missive to grace, a revelation to a burdened soul
See now that dark and light have always been as one
Lies told to choices made belief as I lie still
Blind me and I'll wander
