An umber tower is quiet and looming before me And I once used nothingness to fill that void Then, the sky must thrown a gauntlet To detour me from the center I knew -And I've never been wrong
The winds had changed beyond your shore Now, a mattered mane that muffles the lion's roar
Such a place would leave a sour, familiar taste upon my tongue How I trembled at the knees!
Underneath a mask, in the gully I hie And I sank much deeper than I had prepared for Tailing shades coalesced and converged on the walls When I turned, they were nothing -No, nothing at all
O' such beguiling was their boisterous game! My own shadow... now, a faceless no one
Such a place would leave a sour, familiar taste upon my tongue How I trembled at the knees!
At sudden, from inside me, I felt a rapid disassemble And all around had turned to gloom Still, all around was calm And I raised my fist But there was no confrontation Just a question had they asked And with the comfort, I gave in
An umber tower was quiet and looming before me So, I used its gallantry to fill that void Truly, I had embraced that delusion and glory So, I guess I don't know what I knew after all
Such a place would leave a sour, familiar taste upon my tongue How I trembled at the knees!
