Paradise - Above, Below

Severed morality, such a maelstrom

I have strayed so far from where i’ve come

My course was set for an uncharted sea

And now I’m finding it hard to breathe

Light the way

I’m peering through the veil of darkness

And from a spark bursts a flame

I feel the light, it blinds my eyes

The heat of its efflorescence, masks a lie

And as it fades, into the divine

I’m told of a place called paradise

They’ve led me through the eternal realm

and raised me above the clouds

now soon i will see, what I am to be

I’ve traversed 9 circles of affliction

for this one moment of revelation

Please just, open my eyes

Please just, show me my paradise

I am whole again

Even with stakes in my hands

I am whole again

Unmask the flames behind the ice

And look with our thousand eyes

Once you see the desolation as I do

You’ll see our paradise
