lyrics

I hear the sound of the earth falling
Dying smoke leaves burning embers
Collapsing stone shattered upon me
I lie trapped, I’m all alone - blinded by darkness
 
Lying here wondering how this came to pass
I fear my memories have faded, must be forgetting myself
A cruel paradox as I’ve stumbled into existence
Seem to be reborn, yet buried in my tomb
 
Don’t even know who I am anymore
Could my life be worth living still?
Or should I just stay and die as a stranger?
But I must be alive for some reason
Have to know who I’m supposed to be, or who I could become
 
Then something awakens a strength inside
Stirring me to rise from the ashes
 
My eyes now wide awake
Shown all I couldn’t see
 
My own wounded state reflects this place of ruin
My scarred wrists a sign of harm I had endured
 
I faced death still I was spared, get to live another life
What could fate have in store?
 
Enticed by a glow from a stairwell
Inviting me to find what lies above?
 
A voice, been struck by its song
Echoing through the silence of a desolate chamber
Containing remnants of statues, scriptures and tapestries
But high on a pedestal stands a book
An ancient tome holding a prophecy
 
I turn the pages of illumination, telling of divinations realised
Through a great wall of mist arrived The Wayfarer
A higher being foretold to guide the people to a faraway mystical tree
Whose Song held the key, the knowledge to evolve all of mankind
 
My gaze strays away from the book, so mesmerised
Ornately carved panels, three
In the heart of this fallen edifice, a triptych illuminating me
 
Between depictions of discord and harmony
Stands The Wayfarer before a pillar of light
Encircled by The Myrehsia Tree
It rises through the sky, and so must I
Seek far for the truth, reach for the answers
Let the tree revive my lost memories
 
I wonder what awaits beyond?
Leave this instant and search for answers
Nothing left to lose, a life to restore
Run up the pathway to destiny's door...
 
...crashes wide open
Haunting figures appear
Instinct takes over
No choice but to run
