where are all the people, where have they all gone?
moved away after things went very wrong
smokey remains stand in place of trees
ashes fly from the flames from the burning leaves

Running any direction, I come to an impenetrable wall
structure so strong, seems to be eternally tall
am I really trapped within this burning down land?
air so thick, with ground so hot, it is hard to stand

Visions before the ashes began to rain
Visions before my eyes of the insane

people crowded in the streets, screaming out
fear flood the air when bodies started to mount
terror and sadness came over my heart and eyes
Hearing the sound of my loved ones goodbyes

Trying to help, nothing is worth more to me now
push them out of harms way in anyway I knew how
over the wall I lift the crying ones
echos sounds from the firing guns

Left behind in this torched land of memory
forever witness to the visions of tragedy
the walls grow over me, in this blackened tomb
I sit near the wall, watching the dark fires insume

How can I continue my journey now
I have to get out but I don’t know how
trapped in this Barron land of pain
walk into the fields of the brutally slain

I’ve had lives slip from my hands
memories flow like hourglass sand
regret weighs down my heart and soul
It burns inside like a burning coal

I fall to my knees and stare at the sky
I become weightless I start to fly
Fear and sorrows flood my chest
what happens now, what will come next

I feel a release of my earthly state
Ive walked through the eternal gate
stars around me burn so bright
there is nothing now that escapes my sight

creations of dimensions, I’m not bound by chains
Feeling warmth with out the radiance of flames
The past is not me, I no longer have sins
This new reality for me now begins

Images of worlds and amazing lights
I reign in existence between death and life
Power I feel cannot be explained
the life force of mine cannot be drained

Death was a blessing not a curse
To turn away from the life I had first
But now I’m eternal, now I am extreme
This is my life now, my wake-less dream

Ive seen the mountains grow before my eyes
Walked the world and saw passing of lives
cursed to see endless cycles of the moon
everyday hoping that It will all end soon

She came to me as a flash of light
to keep me warm through this lonely night
Eyes so strong and hair like rain
help sooth my endless pain

terror arise as times winds blew
ripping way the thread that we sew
weary came from your gaze each day
I could only watch you fading away

Tears so cold run down your face
as the beats of your heart loose their pace
the leaves have fallen on the ground
you lay with them making no sound

Eternity rises for me each day
love is gone, this is the price I pay
Forever I march to never be the same
Until my life is able to tame

Circling suns could never dry my face
I stand here still, forever in this place
Time has taken my life but still I wake
my eternal life’s curse will never break

Waiting for the dawn’s light to come for my frozen soul
Wash away the frost that that followed behind the cold
The sun is calling, though the sound is to far to hear
echoing silent winds, blowing shivers of fear

The dreams bring warmth like a flames heated breeze
awaken to know only the lonely feeling disease
The storm never ends while illness it brought
Seeing the life that still sadness begot

The sun comes near, please hear my screams
I try to warm my heart, but now it seems
The suns too far away to cure the chill
Setting suns crush the hope, and damage the will

Star night sky brings hopes through the thin air
Thousands of suns are hidden in the darkness up there
Maybe one will pass to make the snow wither away
calming the storms and protecting this life of dismay

Warmth radiates from inside the black
As fire grows in the coldest depths
With a black hole absorbing the light back

The fire burns hotter the more it hides
the conflagration from below struggles to rest
energy is created that cannot subside

Soon the power cannot be enclosed
for the heat of the fire will burn through
Fear erupts as the radiance of flames flows

Will the fire survive the cold alone
feeling lost in a world thats new
Or will it be meet another flame that has grown

Joining together to envelope all
bring illumination to all corners of darkness
Or will it die in the cold alone and forever fall

Time bleeds the force out of life
Leaving baron bodies cold and hollow
Every breath took is one breath gone
The tide forcing us in
The shore leaving behind
Salt in the water is the salt in the hourglass
Passing by never to be seen again
Collecting, building castles on shores that will fall to the pressure of time
Lost in the oceans growing older and colder
Ice collecting, time slows and slows
Frozen waters reflects bright lights
Blinded looking ahead blinded looking back
Nothing left but waiting the timeless wait
Trapped, still, at the end of time forever

I have chosen the path to the end of the world
To journey beyond the edge to the sea of stars ahead
The sky burns brighter the closer I get
But once I pass the path is darkened
Looking behind to the fires I have seen
Going forward to the black caves of skies
There is a burn from the stars behind
Rushing me faster away from the past
Cold is the future seeking a road I can see
Far in the distance a single light can be felt
Lightyears away but I travel till the star becomes my sun

— The End —
