Sun Caged

Unborn

Sun Caged


Another day slowly fading away 
Once vital blood has been distilled 
Timing right but you can't see it in the light 
This soul's purpose has been fulfilled 

Fragmented daylight 
Island in the storm 
A backward fight 
Flesh and spirit torn 
Life recycling reversing in form 
Unraveling 
Unborn 

Once a boy they all called wise beyond this years 
Now a man with nothing left, nothing left but tears 
He was the one they sought for sage advice 
But the time has come, they've seen through his disguise 

Eyes losing focus 
Comforting embrace 
Frozen in rust 
Giving up the race 
Re-entering, reversing in form 
Unraveling 
Unborn 

Hanging by a fingertip 
Growing tired and losing grip 

At least we've come to the end of usefulness 
Return unto a state of unknowing bliss 
Existing only as and because others perceive 

Fragmented daylight 
Island in the storm 
A backward fight 
Flesh and spirit torn 
Recycling, reversing in form 
Unraveling 
Unborn
