lyrics

Dashed upon the rocks,
Hopes become flotsam,
And moonlight cannot
Illuminate the invisible.

But it casts its eerie glow
Upon the brine amidst the ebb and flow.
The current pulls my thoughts away,
Dragging them into the onyx seas.

Waves of black push me along
A path with no destination.

Visions of the purity of life
Are fragmented upon exploration.

As I see loop holes in the system,
I always come to the same realization.

Visions of the purity of life
Are fragmented upon exploration.

This life we live is a hallucination
Brought about by blind creation!

Finally the end is in sight,
Truth burning through the depths of night.
