I drag my tired bones to the saw
Prove what I’m worth through sacrifice
Yet with every single step that I gain
I feel haste on the breath of collapse

When will I finally see
Which road will define me?
A Man must earn the ground he sows
The compass always breaks
The hollow come and go
Let the knives fall as they may
Cutting deep for salvation

There’s no clear path to deliverance
Only endless darkness
We are the candles choked by the wind
don’t come undone, just be still.

In the void of beasts and misery
I may tremble
Eluded by the grips of fear.
show me someone
Without ruin they rose from
And I promise forgotten ends
No purpose behind the means
No purpose behind their teeth.

The Depths call my name
But so does the Mountain spine
Above? Below?
Perdition exists between.

There are many who forever reside
Watching their feet or the blackened sky
Drowning in a myopic sense of purpose
I reject this way of death
inconsistent of what could be..
With pure conviction
I’m more than ready to die

No One will ever
Account for my pain,
Till I am worthy To kill it off.
Walking away unscathed
In a place where true grit means survival
When tragedy takes root
From the cracks new life will eventually grow
Every second I stand
Stands to question reason
Of the ebb and flow.

I drag my tired bones to the saw
Prove my worth through sacrifice
Drag.My.Tired.
Bones to the saw.
No matter what I may lose
Let the knives fall
Let the dead wood smolder

Now I finally see
That the road ahead will define me
I’ll earn the ground I conquer
The compass always breaks
The hollow will come and go
Let chaos do its worst
I am my own serenity.

Let Chaos do its worst.
