Wayward Sun

Plagued flowers beseech the astral burnings

In an unending revolution

Where nothing lives not even crows

And worms search for absolution

Forests charred to obsidian

And seas turned dry

Memories faded in oblivion

And songs lost in time

Wayward sun may you one day rest

Extinguish the fire

Carry my dreams to the west

While the east lays dire

Craters of sulphur and misery

Replace the gardens slowly

Releasing the poison that blooms

A myriad of nameless tombs

Wayward sun may you one day rest

Extinguish the fire

Carry my dreams to the west

While the east lays dire

Tell me why I keep staring at a blank page

Who's eyes resemble mine

All the words I write keep fading away

Oh keep fading away

Before the ink can dry

A falling skyline laden with crimson rays

Crushed by dimming embers

Soon I'll be drowned by these ashy waves

And drunk from Lethean waters

This wasteland you roam is your true home

I guess some things will never change

And finally your work here will be done

Pyred by the beams of a wayward sun

Wayward sun may you one day rest

Extinguish the fire

Carry my dreams to the west

While the east lays dire
