Lyrics Illumination - Epicurean

Illumination

Upon the storm that gathers here
The torment reigns like fire on my soul
I’d cross this ocean with both eyes open wide
Dream of the day that I set free
My sorrows into your world
When your heart ceases to shine
I’ll show you illumination
Divide the distance between I and I
To regain all the strength I’d lost
What she, it’s life for you and I
Shall endure a lifetime in our minds and in our veins
Though the moments slowly pass that burn my soul
I’d spend a lifetime letting go
And what will remain in its place is the thought
That I gave the world to itself to destroy
Upon the storm that’s gathering
Rides a lifeless burning god like me
Dying to divide the soul from life
And cast the darkness aside
Through it all, words of passion
Crumbling within my grasp
My angel of darkness, spread your wings
You’re mine this time, when I decide
Now, take my hand as our life burns away, turn to dust
When your heart ceases to shine
I’ll show you illumination
Divide the distance between I and I
To regain all the strength I’ve lost along the way
As the moments slowly pass that burn my soul
Through it all, words of passion
Crumbling within my grasp, fall as ashes at my feet
My angel of darkness, spread your wings
You’re mine this time when I decide
And fly on crimson wings towards the sun
We are no longer children of this earth
Would cast a shadow over us both
Before our willing eyes
So now as my life has turned away
What remains is the fire in its place
I know the time is ticking by
Time will change us, time will run
Upon that storm that’s gathering
Rides a lifeless burning god like me
Who would divide the soul from life
To turn the darkness aside
And when your heart ceases to shine
Show you all illumination, further lights us all
Illumination cast a shadow, illumination cast it over me
So if I could gather life
I would stand there as I am, as lifeless burns away
