Darklit Skies

And suddenly you awaken in a strange place

Who are you now, who were you before?

As you stop falling to sleep

You'll realise there's only night in your world

Who are you no more?

You recall the hues of sunlight

And the brightness of a day

But you don't notice its absence

As the dark morning turns to a gloomy day

You can't tell when it has become an ordinary night

You see the city change

Familiar people become different inside

Who are they now, who were they before?

Your memories are not your own

And your life belonged to someone else

A total loss of memories

I take the first step onwards

What horrors might I possess inside my head?

But all I see is silence

A numbing feeling that I haven't seen

What I'm not supposed to see.

A strange feeling that I was not born

Before I started to die

For birth is only a beginning

Of a long, cruel death

Destiny failed to give me life

It gave me someone's death instead

Misled race dreaming in reality... A reverie

We live in illusion

Chained to our spiral world

Trying to remember who I'm supposed to be

But haven't been yet

The loss of memories has turned

To an implanted truth

The same body I now possess

Yesterday maybe served someone else

A mortal coil with an altered soul

Sleeps through change

The sun fades out, introducing the night

Let in the darkness, brilliant as light

The something within us awakes

I took the last step onwards

The horrors that came out shattered the earth

Now there is all, but silence

Now I am the man who I was not supposed to be

The darklit skies gained light once again

But the darkness shall not ever end... never end...
