A Flicker of Light Lyrics

Lying awake, wide open eyes

Reality haunts the mind

The frailness of life, a flicker of light

Briefly defying the night

All of my deeds, all of my dreams

Will one day return to dust

Torn from existence, forgotten and lost

Like nothing was ever there

The fear

Of being no more

Forever

Gone

Lost

In aeons of time

One day

Nothing will be

No guiding hand, no masterplan

A flip of a coin is all

An innocent soul, ripped from this life

Never given the chance

The worthless persist, wasting it all

Never seizing the chance

Fading away, until it's too late

Bitter for what could have been

No fate

No meaning at all

Live or die

By the roll of the dice

Resigned

From the folly of youth

I face

The oncoming night

Fade away

Never rise again

No beyond

Sensing the edge

Creeping closer

The blade of nothing

Cannot be recalled

I refuse

To let it go to waste

I came here alone, I'll leave here alone

A journey from nothing to nothing

A pinprick in time, this everything of mine

All that has been and will be

I'll forge my own path, while I still am

Not waste another day

My flesh will decay, my mark shall remain

Transcend the boundaries of time

Free

From fear of nothing

I cast

These shackles away

And reach

For aeons of time

Reborn

By tomorrows minds
