Ashlight

In voiceless winds where shadows crawl, I chase once more your fleeting call...

The glow of yesterday now wanes, leaving but echoes and pain.

The skies collapse, all fades away, in ceaseless tides of endless grey...

A vertigo carves out my trace, I drift, enshrined in this mirage...

Break me! Requiem of dusk, unearth my fate!

Let Aether gape and seal my state,

Devour me whole...

Bleed me! Let ashes carve my hollow path,

Seal all my past and shroud my sky,

I’ll wait for you...

In these dim realms of vanished light, your specter lingers deep inside.

The winds arise; they pull me forth. Yet I remain still bound to you.

My soul dissolves in dawn unclear, drowned in the shades of distant years...

A fragile echo speaks my grief...Shall I still hold onto your hand?

Break me! Requiem of dusk, unearth my fate!

Let Aether gape and seal my state,

Devour me whole...

Bleed me! Let ashes carve my hollow path,

Seal all my past and shroud my sky,

To lose you still... or fade away?

---

Leave me! Stardust now scattered through my fate,

Let dawn embrace what numbs my state,

Far from your chains...

Let me! The ashes waltz but cannot bind.

New lights now carve the veins of time.

I am alive!

The star is fading, celestial Ashlight,

Engraved in the embers of my mind.

The winds arise, the night drifts by,

And through the void, I reach the light.
