A Scar Filled SkyEruptions of fire and stone all around
They fill the air and shake the ground
And it's proving impermanence
The tortured landscape leaves nothing will be left alive
Bury my remains
Under ashes falling on my grave
Make me whole again
Heed The SoundEchoes ringing in my mind.
They're crying surrender, surrender your will.
Echoes ringing in my mind.
A Voice that once whispered is growing and can't be ignored.
Decrease my name.
The grief that’s found in me, You've broken.
Increase Your name.
Lift The VeilOur perception, so limited and so restrained
A symptom of our condition
Mass confusion, the evidence of staring blind
A symptom of our condition
But we're ready to face illusion
Ready to survey dark vistas
Where forgotten realities have come
New Hopes, New DreamsLook forward now to the horizon.
Be still and recognize.
A new day, a new day dawning
Carving out a new sky
Abandoned our false hopes, our false dreams.
Remember, we wandered
in the absence of the sun.

Soak in the midst of turmoil
Resigned to shrink away
Content to retreat
Content to hide in your safe place

And mourn the casualties
Look at the wreckage
