Lyrics Descent to Light - Howling Sycamore

Descent to Light

Infinite caverns before me
Pulling me into vortices of blackness
Spinning me into a whirlwind of madness
Tearing my skin from my veins
From my bones
From my earthly domain
As I descend to face this illusion
Like the medicine man I am reduced to nothingness
I observe the DNA of what once was my fleshly parade
Now crawling into the earth
As my remains slither like serpent and worms to decompose once again
In this cauldron of primal blood and ritual I am freed
And I descend into the blackness
I am home I am home I am home
My mind begins to boil and splay its meek
And terrible ways that fight to keep the ego in place
Always spinning and hiding and denying change
I let go and descend further and once again
Praying for annihilation of these human frailties
Come full circle into nothingness again
I am reborn into glimmering shards of starlight
As a small still heartbeat within me ascends this
Darkness into blinding light
I know
When all my flesh falls away
And nothing of me remains
I will be fused with starlight
In an infinity of blackness
I am home, I am home, I am home
