The warm veil of innocence
Shattered and broken
In an instant
Burn, Scream
Horrible truth consuming
My sanity
Deep in every man’s heart
Lies unbounded darkness
The seed of corruption present
In both saints and tyrants
A man can build a paradise
Through his brother’s sacrifice
Nothing is ever truly gained
Wealth for karmic debt exchanged
Before the fall
We were one
Boundaries dissolved
Youthful and wise
A perfect balance
Destined for demise
When the harbinger of death has claimed your soul
You’ll be stripped of all you are to pay the toll
Tearing my own flesh down to the bone
Such pain to erase all I’ve ever known
Nothing left of me but a longing for home
I will return by shedding this form
