Elysium the longing
In the hours that pass like a river streamThey make me like this
An inundated valley of crows to sing
To adorn my sanity in black wings
Melodies in screaming tune
Tearing sounds in blissful sadness
Thus eternity made me immune
In the waves that pass
Breaking melody on the shore
Pulling me from the core
Far away from the grass
From the night, memories, that caress
From the fields of Elysium
Sweet longing, the Mantis allure
The dreams that keeps me pure
In wonders innocence endures
Tossed by the winds of uncertainty
My only baggage is memory
To feed me on this journey
Of drought and dreams
The Oasis is calling me
Will you come for me
From the city of paradise
When all that surrounds you is wonder
Would you even ponder
As I am to wait for this promise you made
And I'm still to see a glimpse of you as I gaze
Into the Sky... the Stars a maze
Of lights reminiscing the war in space
Shouts with no sound
From within this cell bound
On this messy mound
Cleaning day in day out
It's no one's fault
But the ignorance... the greed
Lurking within the skin
Invisible enemies within
About to be burned in the abyss
