After The Clouds, The Sun

Eventide 05:29
And so the year lost its meaning. Time passed like the wind as the leaves fluttered to the floor. Overcast my mind with your sight, oh god teach me how to live and how to breathe. A sky of grey and silver took hold of me. As the ice crept down my spine, I became paralyzed inside. We’ve become the people that never die… Anorexic breathing is all I know how. I am lost oh how this burden brings me down. I felt my soul had been sent to solitude when you chose to live without me close by. Was it not enough I gave all I knew to you? I am a voice without any cause, I am nothing at all, you have left me breathless. You turn away from love, you hide away from the sun as now do I though I know I need someone to hold on to. I just cannot seem to find a stable state of mind that I can find something to rely on. And so the year lost its meaning as the leaves fluttered to the floor. Our hearts flood with the thoughts and hold on to what was lost as midnight comes to take the pain away.

Daybreak 03:40
Oh, the light! It’s burning my flesh and mind. Illumination binds me into this machine. When she awoke, every glass wall around her cracked and broke. Mountains the size of planets arise to prevent her path and to heavy her body with sand and stone. I am a slave to greed and sympathy. I am the prisoner I fear. Not even steel can stop me when my soul lusts for more. I’m drowning like a heart encased in stone, while fighting sleep from taking hold. Set off my spark and watch me burn from your words. The smoke surrounds and smothers the air around me. Oh, the light! It’s burning my flesh and mind. Illumination binds me into this machine. It takes its toll and withers every fabric of who we are. I’ve been locked up in shackles for far too long and now I’m breaking beneath the pressure of right and wrong.
