I Am the Void Lyrics

Is it true these barren trees can grow again?
Will they grow again?
I need a place to hide
And if my spirit is a sword, it's dulling
And I accept the night

In the light I grow
In the light I grow no more

Oh, brilliant starlight, come dance with me again
I've not the wind at my back anymore
We dance until we reach the end
Arms reaching out, I cannot bear to watch it fade

In the light I grow

It's calling
I'm falling into the edge
I can't deny my own experience

I am the void

Waiting for years, drowning in tears
Pleading for some kind of answer
What is it for? Where do I fit?
How can I finally be happy?
Cry as I gaze at the light
Withering, catching on fire
Oh, how it shines a light on us all
Yet no one can know what the source is

Filled with horror, I'm slipping
There's nothing left to cling to
Like a candle that's dying
I'm swallowed by the darkness
For life, I can't deny the slings and arrows
For death, I can't deny there's something peaceful, yet...

No soil so scorched it cannot heal
No seed so old it cannot sprout

It's calling
I'm falling into the edge where I will sing my songs of experience
It's calling
I'm falling
The story ends but I will sing these songs of experience
Walk with me now
I am the void

Feel the weight of a thousand eyes press upon you
Cry aloud and proclaim your name
Holy Mighty
It's a feeling, I'm reeling
Blood religion
It's a framework, a life's work
Absolution

Walk with me now into the light
Fire walk with me no more
Black as oil
I am the void
