lyrics

Respite Two

Chapter 8: No Named Greatness

I am the end of all life
I am the baby born
I am the edge of tomorrow
I am yesterday scorned
I am the changing of seasons
As they turn from future to past I
am the voice of reason
To the questions they no longer ask

All encompassing
Collective of completion
Interminable
Void of extinction

There is nothing without me (×3)
Nothing can be without me
There is nothing without me (×3)
Nothing without me

What was will be because of me
Answers to the questions they don't even ask
All encompassing, breathing , alive
A scratch at the surface
All days that were
All of the nights
And all that there will be

I am the ending of reason
I am the ancient storm
I am the pulling of skin
Enshrined in a garden of thorns
I am the breath of the future
As it takes life from the past
I am the source of delusion
When they think their life is 'gonna last

You'll never get our alive
What comes when it's over?
What does it feel like to die?
Succumbs to the moment
Are you breathing?
Weeping sorrow
Is there meaning
Without tomorrow?

Who is coming to me?
What do you seek?
Who is this coming to me
Coming from down on his knees
Who is coming to me?
What do you need
Who is coming to me?
I'm not gonna set you free

I am coming to thee
Down on my knees
I am coming to thee
Begging for me
I am coming to thee
Pleading you please
I am coming to thee
Begging to set me free
