Again I appear to be alone
I am quivering in the chilling wake
There were others here before me
The memory but a moment struggling to recall
Travel through the clouded water
Through currents unknown
Salvation awaiting my name at the bottom
Daylight fades with the rain
Sobering images return to me
(Please come take me away)
Into the darkened center of my eyes
Leak away into eternity
(Come and show me the way)
I realize the purpose of my life
Nighttime came, swept in like the tides
Surrounding me like I was one to suspect
Blessed blanket of darkness
Reaching around, tendrils of night grasp hold
And I merge with the waters
Song I wrote about a year ago. I've written more (MUCH better!) stuff since then, and I'll record it...eventually. { Tags : Progressive, Metal, Opeth, Acoustic, Heavy }
This is something I did with my friend Wes Boynton begin_of_the_skype_highlighting end_of_the_skype_highlighting a while ago, I handled all the guitar and bass duties, he dealt with recording shit, we both produced it together. It's only loosely based on the original, which is from a game called Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door. That's his voice at the beginning, btw. { Tags : paper, mario, rock, hawk, metal, video, game }
