Adoring Ashes

October Tide

I brought fire to the gates of heaven
Enraptured by the coldest of hearts
Tales of it's worship

The words that echoed in vain
"I am the empty"
I whispered Goodbye

My voice carried by the wind
Finds its way to you, will you listen?
My words burn with the sun
Will they be heard, or will it be shunned?

All life and dreams, lost over-night
The moon rose a flood too high this time
Losing hope in the tragic tide

The words that echoed in vain
"I am the empty"
I whispered Goodbye

To remain non-existent
Revel in irrelevance

Your bitter reflection, your mind is straying
The soul misdirected, your departure, betraying
Your world is falling down, I've come to reclaim my crown
Your eyes, open today
I will be there, I cannot stay

Voice of reason, heed the call
Ash like snow, prayers fall
