Daylight

Daylight dies over a thousand arms raised to the sky

Withered and lifeless, scratching at the clouds

Praying to free the light from their grasp

And wrecked by her eyes, I lie quiet

I want to say everything, I dare not speak

And between flashes of blue-white

This madness continues through the night

The shadows hold close what we couldn't deny

The last blow to hope burns in her mind

And maybe I killed time, maybe I'm the murderer

Maybe my broken design, is the worst of her

And when she screams, aims, and fires

I'll return to Earth

Daylight lies just over the mountains

They swear they know me by where I've been

I scratch it all out, and carve my name in the flesh

Of the hell I was given, where I've sown the seeds of Eden.
