Altered Spheres

Returning home, lost so many years
The golden grass, still where it should be
The amber gate, once so strong and true
Cold now and so foreign to me
Maybe just a tainted view

Altered spheres of the mind is my fear
Calling out to find a vision clear

The smiles seen are haunting
Not one reaches those hollow eyes
The knife marks on the boardings
Speak of far darker lies

A ringing sound that crashes all around
A tear in time cuts into my core
As it fades I fear I will be found
I can't just wait here anymore

Altered spheres of the mind is my fear
Calling out to find a vision clear

I hide behind the town well
Only to find I'm not alone
With one shove I fall to hell
All I see are shattered bones

Ripping through my tendons and time alike
I grasp for stone I can make my own
Carving out a path with jagged spikes
Breaking down the world that they had sewn

Moving onwards out of pure hate
Parting stone cuts through the gloam
Metal burns as I see the gate
I have fallen home

Altered spheres of the mind is my fear
Calling out to find a vision clear

Knife now in the boardings
Hollow smile on my face
Time lost me to endless burning years
This is now my place
