Adoring Ashes

I brought fire to the gates of heaven

Enraptured by the coldest of hearts

Tales of it's worship

The words that echoed in vain

"I am the empty"

I whispered goodbye

My voice carried by the wind

Finds its way to you, will you listen?

My words burn with the sun

Will they be heard, or will it be shunned?

All life and dreams, lost over-night

The moon rose a flood too high this time

Losing hope in the tragic tide

The words that echoed in vain

"I am the empty"

I whispered goodbye

To remain non-existent

Revel in irrelevance

Your bitter reflection, your mind is straying

The soul misdirected, your departure, betraying

Your world is falling down

I've come to reclaim my crown

Your eyes, open today

I will be there, I cannot stay

Voice of reason, heed the call

Ash like snow, prayers fall
