Requiem -

I never chose this

Shadowed by the place that I

Could never dream I’d hide from

Dust to shell the soul

It’s all we’ve ever known

Severing the flow

Dust to shell the soul

It’s all we’ve ever known

Lights fading

Returns us whole, as one

Standing on the fault line

Is it something that I’ve missed

I’ve traveled too far

Out of reach, no ground in sight

No where to rest, my soul

Running from the broken lies

Coming home tomorrow

Here we are

As what we are

Confused and far smaller

Than we all believe

Hold it in your hand

Lay it on the line

Help me now to understand

You tread upon the other side

Lay it on the line

Then we can see

Made up of an open mind

Forged upon a memory

I can’t bring you back to me

But still have the will to carry on

Sunken under my skin

Time has come

To dispel the air of ill repute

Pushing through our inner space

Time has come

Channel a change

I’ll not beg you to realize

This world is my truth
