Ancient one (revised)
Crawling through the centuries
scratching your head
as the eyes of the world appear to be
dreadfully dead..
So quick you sense your grip
begin to slip,
can't make the mistake of staying distant
as the storm stays swarming.
Creeping closer
to salvation or damnation
that day's not too far away..
still even then you won't have a clue.
Come, ancient one,
shine and rise along with the sun,
the rays rain down
feeding souls that surround and drown,
come ancient son.
So strangely the scenes and sounds fade endlessly you try to evade each emotion
expecting no commotion,
fear floods through the flesh
filling you up..
A future and present unforeseen
you don't have a clue as to
just what to do,
making moves through the maze
that is mind
still never knowing
just what you might find.
Come, ancient one,
shine and rise along with the sun,
the rays rain down
feeding souls that surround and drown,
come ancient son.
You're a creature of the cosmos
you can leap through the levels
and revel with the rebels,
you're a true testament
you're headed towards
total timelessness
but what do you feel?
It'll be the same there
this truth you must implement.
You're a stranger to sacrificing,
stranger to staying true
to what you always knew,
gazing in through some ghastly haze
you're completely withdrew..
Come, ancient one,
shine and rise along with the sun,
as high and as bright,
the rays revolve and ignite..
see, ancient son.
