Final Dawn

Ardent

Final Dawn


When does it end?
When can I rest?
The runaway pace of being
Has left me standing

Sometimes I stand tall
And laugh at the world
Sometimes I'm the one who falls
And the world laughs at me

Indifference, intolerance, insanity
Fellow man thrives only on the flesh of others
Run faster to beat your kind
Your reward is another useless goal

Once the soul slept
Under a veil of frost
Now it roams free
As ardent as the sun
The pulsing rage
Too much to take
Change the world, change yourself
Leave nothing at your wake

Still I bear to watch
As indifferent as anyone
But the wind has shifted
And the pyres light the way

When stormclouds break
They reveal only pitch-black night
No stars above
Not a single star

Indifference, intolerance, insanity
Fellow man thrives only on the flesh of others
Run faster to beat your kind
Your reward is another useless goal

Once the soul slept
Under a veil of frost
Now it roams free
As ardent as the sun
The pulsing rage
Too much to take
Change the world, change yourself
Leave nothing at your wake
