Light My Path - Torchia

My loneliness has left me

Seeking solace from the dead

And through your own passage you shall meet with your true self

I’ll wash my life away in the waters of this river

Joining the grave of my forebearers

And they speak to me in an ancient tongue

A language without words

Known by all kinds

Like a lightning bolt struck through my spine

They reveal me their secrets

They’re taking me with them

I don’t know your name

But I feel you’re present

Mother, reclaim me

When I return to where I’ve come from

And I shall call you Gaia

Through the darkest moment

All that I’ll leave behind

A stranded empty shell

Bathing in the morning light

It would have been a beautiful day to be alive

Nevertheless, a good day to die

I don’t know your name

But you guide my way

Father, light my path

As I step into the unknown

I have waited for this moment

For so very long

Father, I am afraid to go alone

I have waited for so long
