Until Dust - Black Fast

Lapse again

Into lessening light

Ailing spirit, failing mind

Downwards, mired, ending life

Steeped in pitch, black as night

Closing in and pressing on

Never ending, no bottom

Swallowed in darkness, imploring cries

Mouthless wonder, you drift and die

And climb, up through the substrate, you rise

Devolving and blind

Consuming their eyes

But the sky has other plans today

No need for words, nothing to say

Cornered tyrants left betrayed

Cower, conquered, all erased

Devolving and blind

Consuming their eyes

And for the servant, the song is absent

The verdict is just

Strung up high to hang defiant

Until the dust becomes of us

Swallowed in darkness, imploring cries

Mouthless wonder, you drift and die

Until the dust becomes of us
