Death Posture (Demo)

Cold air, sharp inside my lungs
like coming back to life
how can I count myself
among the keepers of the light?
I begged questions of the gods
with sacred fire in my mouth
and in no uncertain terms
they said prepare yourself
I have awoken so this is no surprise
the far horizon will bring a sweet demise
Tear out my eyes
so I can see without seeing
I’m still a novice
to the art of believing
Cut out my heart, I want to
know without knowing
I hold the world in my hands
and time is slowing
With a word I shape reality
my hands embrace the world unseen
but still the greatest mystery
is the empty spaces in between
Under this crushing weight
I will not surrender to despair
for as long as my sinew holds
I will be conqueror
I have awoken so this is no surprise
the far horizon will bring a sweet demise
Tear out my eyes
so I can see without seeing
I’m still a novice
to the art of believing
Cut out my heart, I want to
know without knowing
I hold the world in my hands
and time is slowing
Into the void with nobility
into the night with lucidity
Fear nothing
Fear nothing
Leaning on the brink of oblivion
my heart and mind can
finally move as one

Ghosts (Demo)

Sleepwalking through these halls in the dead of night
I see the images of those long gone, entombed in dust
Awake but still dreaming, I thought you were with me
You never said goodbye
Your footsteps fade into nothingness
I am the only light that will burn forever
Every soul is a ghost that wanders as it will,
Haunting the halls of my heart
They all come and go, a pageant of regret
Abandoned, but not forgotten
I am the only light that will burn forever
These ghosts remind me of what is gone
Of all the love I’ve left behind
Some were taken from me, and others lost
Only one remains for all time
I’m alive, the light in me
I’ll never let it burn away
I am the only light
I’ll burn forever
You cast me to the dark, and it’s okay
I have a light in me, do you have a light in you?
