lyrics

Burn. I begin, I take my first step into the light. Incandescent, the inferno lies ahead in my sight. Looking behind me, I see I cast a shadow and now marvel at what only grows in complexity. My path is marred by nightmares of the past reflecting in the future. No matter where I go I know the darkness will only follow. The closer I am to illumination, the more
I see the missteps I’ve taken. With knowledge comes the fire that burns away all the misconceptions about the self. I am not who I thought I was.
In your image I shroud myself, forgetting my own reflection. Losing vision of where I need to go, I’m lost in your shadow. The insight will guide my way.
I’ve been counting and recounting all of the time that I’ve wasted, consumed by making up a false image. The time is now, I will finally breathe. My facade will come undone and burn away from me. What then? In these moments will I breathe so easy, or will I succumb to their scrutiny and reform myself in another’s imagery? Will their eyes still condemn me? I’ll burn away all the misconceptions about the self. I am not who I thought I was.
In your image I shroud myself, forgetting my own reflection. Losing vision of where I need to go, still lost in your shadow. The insight will guide my way.
