Fallen to Pieces
Day and night
through this ceaseless travel
I undertook
to seek more and unravel
the truths that would quench
the thirst in my soul
the truths in my consciousness
that would make me whole
I travelled so far to meet my destiny
to hold that elusive tryst
with my reality
I travelled through life's mazes and blind alleys
to understand my essence
feel my presence
and explore my divinity
Traversing this vast expanse
searching tirelessly
I dug with my bare hands
To unearth the missing pieces
And screamed for answersto unfold the divine plan
To live purposefully
and not breathe in vain
To live purposefully
and not breathe in vain
Seeking and searching
Questioning and accepting
Unknowingly I kept splitting and multiplying
Images of self
To seek approval and validation
Creating mirages
Trumpeting the masquerade
Trumpeting the masquerade
To escape heaven's damnation
I lost Me somewhere
collaged memories
are all that I am left with
of flowing tresses and frozen smiles
collaged memories
are all that I am left with
of flowing tresses and frozen smiles
of flowering desires and human passion
Lying wilted under the crimson sun
Unfeeling like a barren womb
A ruined temple, my soul's tomb
Now the end is near
Unfeeling like a barren womb
A ruined temple, my soul's tomb
Now the end is near
and I can feel your cold breath
dark and restless, You, ever formless
dark and restless, You, ever formless
lurking in life's shadow
with your enchanting caress
caress that will last forever
with your enchanting caress
caress that will last forever
Take what is left
split images and mirages
Even for you I cant put it all together
When the time comes
and this time when the call is for me
Angel of Death, Lover of my soul
wont you come...swift and sure
to stake your claim and make me whole
