Polaris

The Descent
From the sky rained ash. Red hand and mouth of black A voice that echoes from the deep I woke up to silence, in medicated air. I breathed in intoxicating essence: Disinfected clinical scents that cling to me like bleach White walls, white tiles and white sheets, and all the looming faces I saw the angel's horns. I saw the devil's wings One beckons to the light, while the other calls me down There are answers waiting for you underground Down, follow me down. There is quiet, there is peace to be found Malicious master of my destiny, what is it that you want from me? What is it that you seek? (what do you seek?) And while the scavengers surround, I block my ears to stifle out The siren's call as it beckons me As the flowers bloom from the snow, I have waited a long time to grow, You'll never know what I kept inside to be still here somehow alive, Despite my best attempts to leave it all behind Leave me breathless I long to believe that there was virtue here, in the heart I hid from them I can't pretend I haven't dreamt of you: the shadow in the cemetery I know the grip, I shook your hand too young to ever comprehend Letras de cancionesTo leave this world with you, familiar friend, would be such a perfect end When time stands still, and your hands can't feel When the storm won't pass, and you taste only ash When the days draw on, and the nights grow long, is it so absurd to ask: Malicious master of my destiny, what is it that you want from me? What is it that you seek? (what do you seek?) And while the scavengers surround, I listen closely for the sound That echoes from the deep Slow descent. no light to be found Sin has clothed me in its shroud, and in my ears he calls me down: End the suffering, lay your burden down Follow me down. There are answers waiting for you underground From Letras Mania
