A Looming Resonance

Staring onward

As time stands still

Devoid of tribulation

While time stands still

Starlight breaks this darkened haze

Filter through decay

Moonstruck children indisposed

Malignant culture thriving on

Defile the sanctum

Of this place

Winter now converges

Drenched in all its blackness

The last stalks of light are devoured

Shadows

And so they march on hallowed ground

History repeating

Behaviour that has been burned into the bone

Staring onward

When time stands still

A thousand years of fruitless searching

Object of desire beyond the reach

Of old and brittle hands

With bated breath, anticipate the end

Voices of the vanquished echo in the dreams

Where is the fire

That dwells inside

Darkness returns with cold embrace

Staring onward

When time stands still

Devoid of tribulation

Time stands still

Staring onward

Time stands still
