Lion Arises

Bitter wind, blind eyes
Forsaken in the sands of time
Never alone in this
Epoch of eternity

Foes living inside my mind
Your weapons are fortified
No escape no return to the sea

A tidal wave won’t undo this
Final day

And I won’t be afraid
I will lay my head down and sleep
I will feel morning sun on my face
Even though I’m surrounded
Enveloped on every side
I’m at peace as the lion arises tonight

Words disappear when
It burns into fear again
They are cloaked and they are chained in
Robes of blackened roses

A blanket of snow will fall
The entrance to the door dissolved
Pillars decayed and destiny unfolds

A violent haze won’t undo this
Final age

And I won’t be afraid
I will lay my head down and sleep
I will feel morning sun on my face
Even though I’m surrounded
Enveloped on every side
I’m at peace as the lion arises
Tonight

And I won’t be afraid
I will lay my head down and sleep
I will feel morning sun on my face
Even though I’m surrounded
Enveloped on every side
I’m at peace as the lion arises
Tonight

Tonight
