Time Doesn’t Have To End

Time stops at 4:17,
Memories flood my vision,
Drowning me in regret and fear.

Time ended, I ended.
Now I drift, sundered,
Further from my world.

I remember my severence.
                                          Everything I knew was torn away.
Mistook it for deliverence.
                                          No angels came for my soul’s redemption.
Forever bound to the Essence.
                                          I will not be lost here, forged as new life.
I will return for my vengeance.
                                          Never again shall I be harvested.

All the world’s life gathered here,
Awesome and dynamic,
To be wrought once again,
Fuelling the future.

The Essence draws in all,
Destroys all, makes all into nothing.
Your being lost forever, everything becomes meaningless.
I will not allow myself to be purged.

I remember my severence.
                                          Everything I knew was torn away.
Mistook it for deliverence.
                                          No angels came for my soul’s redemption.
Forever bound to the Essence.
                                          I will not be lost here, forged as new life.
I will return for my vengeance.
                                          Never again shall I be harvested.

I fight the Essence,
Screaming and pulling with all my might,
And just when I am about to give in to fate
I am released.

I could not survive life,
For every man must die,
But I will be damned
If I fail in death.

I remember my severence.
                                          Everything I knew was torn away.
Mistook it for deliverence.
                                          No angels came for my soul’s redemption.
Forever bound to the Essence.
                                          I will not be lost here, forged as new life.
I will return for my vengeance.
                                          Never again shall I be harvested.

Life, Severence, Struggle, Release.
This eternal cycle continues
An eternity of Death,
                                 Pain,
                                         Horror.
An eternity of Life,
                               Strength,
                                             Love.

Never again shall I be harvested.
