Waiting

Under stars enthroned, far above

As the forest drowns in black snow

Under stars enthroned, I shall serve

And the ice consumes the world below

There exists no life around me

Though I sense I'm not alone

I am yielding to the darkness

And the wind a lonely voice

Black snow

Under stars enthroned

Infinite sky

Every step I take, life recedes

Under stars enthroned, everlasting night

And the cold prevails beneath

There exists no life around me

I am seeking my reflection

I resign to my extinction

In this ocean of black snow

Deep within my tortured flesh I remain alive

I long for my demise, in this world contrived

Everything I once was and once defined

I'm too blind to perceive the blindness in my mind
