lyrics

Dare I descendent of the waste
Observe the frailty of the soul
No longer with savage hunger
Looking to wonder
Looking beyond

So I have been to the top
Only to find there another fall
All the while all those around me
They seem to be further
They seem to be nowhere

Am I leaving behind
The fire that was raging in my time?

Have I fallen apart?
Is the light in my being burning, black as night?

While I am filling light with doubt
The fiend inside me is clawing out
Feeding upon this darkness
My spirit putrid, my spirit rots

Am I leaving behind
The fire that was raging in my time?
Have I fallen apart?
Is the light in my being burning black as night?

For every trial
There has been brutal failure
From every battle
There has been bitter defeat

Dare I descendant of the waste
Observe the frailty of the soul
No longer with savage hunger
Looking to wonder
Looking beyond

Am I leaving behind?
The fire that was raging in my time?
Have I fallen apart?
Is the light in my being burning black as night?

For every teaching
There has been firm attention
For every lesson
There has been nothing learned

Destroy all that is I
So that this world can shine
