language constructs of my decline, and still I feel nothing
I’ve gone where death cannot follow
and within those words be born again…
Will I see our temple left in ruins, in the absence of love?
Though my intentions still remain, I’ve severed my ties
and I will pull you out from shelter, to stand within the fire
and in passing, you’ll realize the point, the cause

in this life or the next, wherever I find my place
