Apotheosis

Set me free is this the place of my undoing

Show me the way from this place, take me away
Through the darkness, numb my pain
All I know is suffering, one foot in the grave

Bury the hatchet, another nail in the casket
My blood turns to ice beneath these barren skies

A glimpse of light shimmers this time
You guide the way through oblivion
This trail of thorns leads on
Get me out of this maze
This labyrinthian hell quakes

Set me free before I'm lost in the dark

Hopeless devoured by the shadows of my wake
The light slowly turning away from me

Is this the place of my undoing
Shine on me
Illuminate this crepuscular feeling

Show me the way from this place
Take me away through the darkness
All I am is all I'll ever be
All that's left
Melancholy

A glimpse of light shimmers
This time you guide the way through oblivion
This trail of thorns leads on
Get me out of this maze
This labyrinthian hell bellows

I can see the way out from the disconnect closing
Illuminate this godless space and pull me out
Liberate these ruins I've become

Set me free
Is this the place of my undoing
Set me free
Illuminate the crepuscular feeling
