Towards The Absolute

I will not play with fire

I cannot yield to my own lunacy

I will not bring to life the turmoil buried deep inside

Beneath the shadows i stand strong

I will go on

My time is now

I am reborn

I do not feel desire

My blood runs cold

Oblivion takes me in

Distorted visions become my world, my nightmare

Anguish exhausts me

Leaves me restless and bemused with myself

Who am i

Is this reality

I invade such fateful waters

They destroy me; destroy the very heart of me

Obsessed with wanting more

Desire wildly takes me by the hand

I want to have it all

Alive, within me

I am at war with myself

I destroy me; destroy me right to the heart

I will not play with fire

I cannot yield to my own lunacy

I will not bring to life the turmoil buried deep inside

Beneath the shadows i stand strong

I will go on

My time is now

I am reborn

Lost in my own disharmony

I am torn; i am bleeding into an obscure fate

Don’t lose yourself, don’t cry

Rest your head and dream, dreamer

You are chasing beyond your reach

Beyond the hands of time

Desperately you seek to have it all

The fire in you has consumed your mind

Restless, bewildered, longing to find a way

The torture you force on yourself now must stop

It has to end

Oh no it has to end

Beneath the shadows i stand strong

I will go on

My time is now

I am reborn
