Monolith - Sylosis

Tired eyes

Shocked into a daze

The monolith rose from the ground

And the sky was red

Like the soil in my grave

The earth shook with the tides

And caused storms through endless seas

Tell the gods to gather their clouds

To amend this broken dream

Dead to the world

Cast a silent revolt

The slaughtered black sheep

No hope comes as I dream of light

I clench my fists as I sleep

I’ve lived a thousand lives

Seen horrors through a thousand lies

Dig deeper

Through clawed hands you’ll find

No end in sight

I’m so tired yet sleep is no redeemer

When every breath hurts I’ll breathe even deeper
