Eternity

Pray to breathe Behold what's left to see Once a golden titan Now lost in reverie They call me the prince of the rapture With a heart of ice and stone If only they could fathom What lay behind my throne I've captured minds in wonder With a tongue of silvered wit Yet now I grow so weary Fraught in doubt and counterfeit Time slips away When you're a slave to its charm It holds you when it needs to Yet lays waste when in charge Take me away Take me far from here And yet I long for death's embrace Her comfort Her grace No longer shall I bear the pain Release me from my eternal reign Reflecting on my past I count where I went wrong To trust in where I was before To fit where I belong Too far beyond redemption In chains of faith and glass I lost all that I had loved And yet I long for death's embrace Her comfort Her grace No longer shall I bear the pain Release me from my eternal reign Release me Release me Release me Now left to find my way Left to find my way Release me from my eternal reign Cold and calloused It leads me to rage on, cursed and estranged Bread into silence Tied to enslave all cast through these flames Over and over Chained to behave Tailored to nothing Forced to revisit the pain of my past It rages on Forced to recover A slave to this other It rages on How long I've lived in protest Like a moth unto the flame How long I've served in protest A blight unto his name Course and careless Exiled to rule over all that is vile Seething for being a titan of gold With pride to his name Forced to revisit the pain of my past It rages on Forced to recover A slave to this other It rages on For all the tears I shed My call to paradise fell on deafened ears Denied a second chance Refused one final glance of where I hung my wings Sentenced to live on In a shrine of molten stone, destined for defeat I fell from warring skies Into the dark of night Never seen again Cast from up above Terrified and bare Bound to eternity With no end in sight Scathed beyond repair Can you set me free They call me the prince of the rapture With a heart of ice and stone If only they could fathom What lay behind my throne I've captured minds in wonder With a tongue of silvered wit Yet now I grow so weary Fraught in doubt and counterfeit And yet I long for death's embrace Her comfort Her grace No longer shall I bear the pain Release me from my eternal reign Release me Release me Release me Now left to find my way Left to find my way Release me from my eternal reign For all the tears I shed My call to paradise Fell on deafened ears I fell from warring skies Into the dark of night Never seen again
