Skies lie above but a star's below
At the bottom of the Earth
Blinded and bowing underneath the glow
Of constellations speaking tongues that I've not heard
In the dimmest reaches of the night sky
I feel the eyes of those who observe
Life and death, joined and then confined
In a circle of lessons that will all stay unlearned
And the instincts ages were spent burying
As we all evolved
Were awakened in the place of everything
In lifetimes that I once recalled
Primal urges now unearthed we're carrying
We'll protect 'til they're resolved
Through the bloodlines that would trace the portrait
Of man and the beast to which he falls
Falling to depths that I have never known
Unfamiliar eyes to see
View just the same as days I have let go
And parts of me that I released
Now the fog hides a kingdom of ghosts
Where once there was man and beast
Now I'm come to abandon all hope
To relinquish the man I used to be
And the instincts ages were spent burying
As we all evolved
Were awakened in the place of everything
In lifetimes that I once recalled
Primal urges now unearthed we're carrying
We'll protect 'til they're resolved
Through the bloodlines that would trace the portrait
Of man and the beast to which he falls
