Desolation

I opened my eyes To the night sky The unending storm Revealed itself before me Weightless in my resolve But, still a burden remains With this final breath "Please, forgive me" With every wasted prayer I've watched your body wither I've seen what you've become As you pushed me away Consumed by my pride I fled from your side And tried to understand Your faith in this wretched world That has condemned you The lights of home have faded Into desolation I gave you all that I had Your faith in this godless world Has lead you astray I opened my eyes To a sky in flames A cold wind lamenting Through the unending plains Within the frozen wreckage Is where I shall remain But, with this departure I'll be with you once again I opened my eyes! I opened my eyes! I opened my eyes! I opened my eyes!
