One step, then I pause to remember
The skeletons littered around me
Hearts once whole, now a fading ember
Fought for the Tomorrow they could never see
A flame rages within my soul
Burning away all my distractions and fear
Leaving only the compass to my goal
Eyes set upon the horizon, my cause clear
Limping forward, towards the light
Spirit yearning to be free from this night
Every time I rise, just to be pushed back down
Head beneath the surface, about to drown
Silence from Light's fragile whispers in my ear
Drifting towards a void of emptiness
Wondering if I let go, would there be anything left to hear
Ready to give in to the abyss
A ray of light pierces through the darkness
It shudders and lets out a horrid cry
Now simply ashes of the illusion of eternalness
Freeing a titanium will none can deny
Pushing forward towards the light
Spirit yearning to end this night
