Horizons

So it begins

Our eyes drawn open
Free from the thought of doubt
Free from the selfish conflict
Our blood restless
Ceaseless
With open arms we stand
Before the dawn

The sun seems to have been rising
Ever since I can recall
Lending a sense of permanence
To this lying world

Your words not worth the air
Your life not worth its weight in flesh
To hope for something more
To dream of substance

Like a million before us
Waiting to die
Like a billion before us
Waiting to die

Masochistic to think
This would be remembered (would be remembered)
Sadistic, perpetuation
Of stagnation

[x2]
There is nothing as empty
As waiting to die
We've spent our lives
Wasting, as time eats us alive

The sun seems to have been falling
Ever since I can recall
The only sense
Of permanence
In this dying world

Sit back and watch
As time eats us alive

Everyone who knew me
Knew me
Destined to die
Die

The marks I left upon this world
Will wash away
In time

In time
And so it ends
In time
It all finds an end

In time
And so it ends
In time
We all find an end

With broken arms
And hollow eyes
I'll wait to return to oblivion

Embrace our last
Empty horizon
Embrace our last
Empty
Horizons
