From The Shards Lyrics

You thought your

Your fears were dead

Burnt laurel

Wreath to pay your last respects

Watched the smoke leaving the temple in the sunset sky

Like black birds

Crossing to the other side

Did you feel strong in the illusion

Did you feel safe at night

How long it took to realize

Was only dummies burning

Can't hold the pieces together

Ash and faith and lies

Falling from up high

All, your, fear, came, back

Knocked at your head

Found the door

The door

Much weaker

Than you guessed

Ash and faith and lies

When did my nerves turn to worms

They are crawling

Rippling the dark surface where my mind sleeps

Licking the halves no more matching I dream

Crawling below

When did my nerves turn the worms

The way out seems to call

From the shards of a window

I'm losing control

Of my air

How can I do

Another day

Was all my strength all a lie

The rocks are melting down

And the mountains turn to sand

The dunes are drifting wide

Parting like the Red Sea did

Above the eye rises clear

Fledging arrows for the war

The archer nocks the bowstrings

Rising

Diving

Fighting again

Riving

Diving

Living again
