Into the Emptiness Lyrics

Frail and grey

Dead as the barren limbs

That reach for me

Winter of the spirit

Life and death

Joined, one in the same

When stars decay

Fertile are the heavens

If we are saved

Are we ever free?

The cycle goes on

Gilded words

Descend from the sky

Like flames above

Bringing consternation

Does the path

We choose to abide

Have consequence

Or is it worthless?

Severed minds

Escape vacuity

The questions live on

On and on

When the specters call

From long ago

Join their haunting requiem

Into the emptiness

We fade away

Now accepting of this fate

Transcending

Like towers piercing high

They obfuscate

Mortal ties that bind

There's nothing in this world for me

A wraith left behind

Devoid of all belief

Forever brings me great lament

To never truly die; to never truly rest

The mountains rising through the clouds

Resplendent oceans once profound

Now lost behind obsidian mantles

The beauty I had once adored

Has long decayed and filled with thorns

Insignificance shadows it all

Forget the past

And cease the days

Cleanse the life that remains

I turn my eyes

Towards the grey

In welcome peace, I will remain
