Where the Crows Gather - Into Departure

Lying awake in dormant dream,
The drum of that heart would carry my sleep,
To be so near yet so far gone,
A torment burns it rages on.

In desperate times I called for you,
But only to hear what the heart knows true,
Shattered remains of that life,
So insatiable for what’s not mine.

Like a clap of thunder before the rain,
I felt everything of this sensual pain.

A blackened sun comes to dominate
A mind so corrupt
But for a moment of clarity
Soon the clutching arms
Of chaos come forth
And a single reprisal remains
Only a shadow stays

Gifted was the time of god
When that time was the presence of love
Preparing for the final touch
Why must life turn to dust

How can I watch and say goodbye
To this world I’ve come to know inside
Nothing is clear, it’s so untrue
A rift so great, it cant be through
To cross your arms for one more night
I shiver so cold
The end’s in sight
