Fen - VI (Sight) lyrics
[Fen - VI Sight lyrics]
My sight returns as from a dream
A dream empty of thoughts
And sounds and visions
And I remember it being one of the
Most beautiful places I had ever been
I had never before that
Point known such peace
A winter for the spirit
I was harvested of essence
A place of endless solace placating
This soul's corroded ruins
Bereft of flesh, divorced of earth
Severed of being
And now I can drift once
Again but soaring free
I can look down upon all I once
Knew - all I once was and see with the cold
Crystalline clarity of the dead
Through eyes unmisted, a mind unfogged
Free of the oppressive weight
Of the cathedral's dead stone
Of this body's withered flesh
Of this mind's shattered synapses
I didn't think such a quiet was possible
That the relentless roil of rage and
Despair thrumming like lava through me
Could be extinguished
And given over to a plateau of calm stillness
I embrace this season of ending
With every fiber of
My departing consciousness
Frozen and eternal
A winter for the soul carried
On oblivion's ghostly breath
One last final exhortation
To the violent winds that rend and
Rend and rend and rend i surrender
I descend i dissolve
I end
