Lyrics Luminous - Arkive

Luminous

My trail paves a narrow road
Lit by moments that fade with each step
But before me hangs the curtain
Wreathing panic 'round my neck
Every memory reflecting a shard of sight
As the call of the past meets my present
The formless features of annihilation
Holding me to the abyss
It’s the blinding reminder
Of the time you’re erasing
We’ve figured it all out
It’s the time you’ve been wasting
And I am encased in cold and grey
But we will become luminous
When surrounded in darkness
We seek out distant lights
And the safety we presume it provides
This desire to stray is a game of the mind
A breeze rolls by you
You feel the fire beside you flicker out
Now with your world at its darkest
Darkness descends on us
You sense danger and seek a way to gain relief
Give me release
Curiously you tremble
As you push toward the warmth that pierces the uncertainty
Exchanging the reflections of who I am
A fortification, an iron will mind
Give me the strength I need to open my eyes
Within the black of the deep
Ignite a spark to show me the road
'Cause I’ve fallen asleep at the wheel
A bitter man with a heart set to heal
Give me the strength to survive
I pledge these changes on all of my life
Shadows' lifeless weight
Calm as a lover’s embrace
We’ve figured it all out
It’s the time you’ve been wasting
And I am encased in cold and grey
But I still see the light
