Shadow of the Sun

Whispers crawl along the horizon line

Shadows stretch, they reach for time

A silver wind carries the unspoken

In the hollow of the night, the pact is broken

I walk where the river folds into fire

The sky burns low, reflecting desire

Eyes of ancient stones, watching me bend

The journey has no start, the journey has no end

And I hear the calling

From the fissures in the sand

The voices of the buried

Rise to touch my hand

Shadow of the sun, I kneel beneath your light

Dancing with the dust, dissolving in the night

Chants of the forgotten, winding through the air

I am lost and open, I am everywhere

Through corridors of memory, I descend

Flesh and spirit fracture, merge, and blend

A serpent coils in the marrow of the moon

Its song is an echo, a spectral rune

Ahh… the end is only beginning

Ahh… the dream unfolds like a knife

I taste the ancient river

I ride the endless strife

Shadow of the sun, I kneel beneath your light

Dancing with the dust, dissolving in the night

Chants of the forgotten, winding through the air

I am lost and open, I am everywhere

The sky splits open

I step across the flame

Nothing to hold me back

Nothing to name
