lyrics

I've come to know this isolation
I live to breathe this cool dark air
Within this maze of stone

If only light could see as I see
This welcomed guest, the night to share
To see this world once more

Faintest moon
Reaching through
Crawl to me

Crawling toward the light among the stone
Reaching for the shadow it has thrown

I have come to know this cool dark air
This welcomed guest the night to share

With our hands we see
With the stones we sleep
With the worms we feast
In this blackened sea

Reach to me
Faintest moon

Crawling toward the light among the stone
Living in the shadows, now alone

Crawling, reaching, clutching

Shadow desperate to be seen
Lost amidst a blackened sea
Its broken form hides in forgotten space
Timeless now, by time erased
