Traveling without a purpose into the darkness allotted
In remembrance of a great and vast time of peace, I follow the tone
Every step further into moonlight ensures a breath of clarity
Whether it may last a moment or forever
Time is no longer a matter within this journey
Step aside and let the voices guide
The ancient groans will reverberate among the hollow shell of your being
Calling out for the reasons and why you know pain
Stand with me upon these fertile grounds
Focus your eyes into the shadowed bounds
I shall lay you gently here while thy name rings aloud
I have seen all that can be
I have felt all that will be
I am the corrosion that no one speaks
Take my hand
I will show you everything that you will never be
Beyond the mountains and oceans of sorrow we shall go
This realm exists between your world and mine
We feel nothing and grant the wishes for gloom
This silence you feel is the only wardrobe we know
Every prayer they have made has fallen short to my throne
Stand with me upon these fertile grounds
Focus your eyes into the shadowed bounds
I shall lay you gently here while thy name rings aloud

You stand tall upon this throne built entirely by other mended from broken bones
Many have come and only the few return
Each day etched and carved within the hollow skulls that have endured
This darkness slaves every soul that's held and repented
For every child that's taken they must stand alone as the forsaken
Your savior became merely a ploy to conquer all
Another excuse for the bloodshed
Your crowns will be buried with your fallacies and faith forevermore
Reject rejoice reclaim
Relinquish the stains of righteous pain
Begin anew without profound disdain
Gather and remain for a chance to sustain

Treading tirelessly within the vacant wails aloud
A screeching halt for purpose as a wanderer strokes my thoughts
A cavernous birthright drips elegantly down the stones
Chains rustling between haunting echoes
Voices of wrath being to coat my efforts alone
Beings aroused by torture clawing beyond each door
Wood beneath their nails like the pleasure they've endured
Knees began to quake as I've fallen to the throne
The vibrance of this pain seers through my flesh and bone
A sharpened muzzle for the truth
Each glance to the velvet is another pierce in my skull
Enthralled in disbelief, I am becoming more than a home
Shedding skin quickly as another creature begins to moan
These walls are built of you and I
Each stoned sweats the blood of the defied
This flag hung high with a virtue thrown aside
