Alone
Parkway Drive
Shifting light outlines my battered form
Stranger to the world, alone in my abandonment
A gaining army of white horses
Stark warning race before the icy front
The deceiving calm betrays all signs
Of impending change
Evening tide what do you hide?
Damnation or salvation?
As my skin breaks the blackened surface
The cold is rising, yet all embracing
Darkness, erase this lonesome place
From my every existence!
An angry sky bares the signs
A distant violence yet to break
The ocean's travelers
Cry forth across the waves
Lightning cracks
Across a vast horizon
Reaching out its hands towards
An unsuspecting shore
No light to guide
No ties, no ties to bind
Evening tide, what do you hide?
To the years spent waiting on the winds of change
This is penance paid, this is my penance paid
To the morning Sun, whose warmth never found
This young man's face
Shifting light outlines my battered form
Stranger to the world
Alone
Evening tide, what do you hide?
Lightning cracks
Across a vast horizon
Reaching out its hands towards
An unsuspecting shore
With a final effort
I strike out across the swells
Seeking only the answers
Maybe horizons hold
