lyrics

Risen from the sand
Or am I fallen from the sky?
Drifting without aim,  anchored no more
Blinded by sun, withered by heat
Desiccation all consuming
Fathomless horizon
Shrouding a distant shore

Desert the path
Unearthed by ruin
Abandon fate
Obscure my burden

Nightfall's cool embrace
Tempering my disposition
Gathering winds are
Forging my path from beyond
Wasting away, wearing me down
This hesternal skin no longer
Damning my reflection
Dead on the ocean floor

Desert the path
Unearthed by ruin
Abandon fate
Obscure my burden

Caught in between, prisoner of sunlight
Sand at my feet leaves me broken inside
I can't dream, I can't feel,
I can't hold this monolithic weight  (upon me now)
Deserting every ounce of being, entombed by the ever-rising tide

Prisoner of sunlight
