Alight In The Aftermath

　　Then they came in shapes and dreams

　　Visions wrapped in smoke and steam

　　Spoke to me in twisted tongues

　　Words that burned inside my lungs

　　Then they came to bring the end

　　Infiltrate and then transcend

　　Whispers from the dawn of time

　　Spiritual but not divine

　　Where is the meaning to all that's left behind

　　If I walk down that path?

　　From the beginning,

　　we kept our souls entwined

　　Alight in the aftermath

　　Then they came like rain and wind

　　Flesh can't hold the truth within

　　There's no guilt, no one to blame

　　Spirits travel without names

　　And if that flame enlightens me

　　Will it relieve me of my needs?

　　To come alive, free from existence

　　Escape the emptiness where I was born

　　Then they come as travelers through astral planes,

　　diverting time

　　The great unravelers of all

　　that's hidden in your mind

　　I lift my gaze into the fire beyond

　　This wondrous phase,

　　it will not last for long

　　Embrace this dawn like I once held you

　　You'll know before my time is due

　　Then they came at no small cost

　　They alone know what I'd lost

　　After birth communiqué

　　This time, fire lights the way

　　Where is the meaning to all that's left behind

　　If I walk down that path?

　　From the beginning,

　　we kept our souls entwined

　　Alight in the aftermath
