XX: The Judgement - The Reckoning

V5.5

Yeah. I hear the call in the dead of the night. Washing the dark till it bleeds into light. Just wait. Just wait for me. I slipped the lock, didn't make a sound Left our heaven crashing down to the ground It was sudden, it was cold, it was coward's play I couldn't face the sun, so I walked away Now the sheets still hold the scent of your skin A heavy reminder of the state I’m in I want to reach out, trace the curve of your spine But the hands I have left aren't worthy of mine. And the silence blows like a heavy horn I gotta break the man that was already born Shedding the ego, stripping the pride Nowhere left for the shadow to hide. I feel your pulse, but I keep my distance Burning the roots of this flawed existence I can't taste your lips till the water runs clear I’m building a man from the ruins here. So I release you now to the mystic wave I’m letting you go, I’m letting you be... Till the day I rise up from this grave, And I'm finally ready for you and me. Every night is a trial, a sweat and a fever I used to be a ghost, a smooth deceiver Now I’m grinding my bones on the altar of truth Bleeding out the careless mistakes of my youth. It's a sensual death, this breaking apart Rewiring the rhythm of a selfish heart. I crave you deep, yeah, I crave you wild But I refuse to return as a runaway child. Hear the silence blow like a heavy horn I gotta break the man that was already born Shedding the ego, stripping the pride Nowhere left for the shadow to hide. I feel your pulse, but I keep my distance Burning the roots of this flawed existence I can't taste your lips till the water runs clear I’m building a man from the ruins here. So I release you now to the mystic wave I’m letting you go, I’m letting you be... Till the day I rise up from this grave, And I'm finally ready for you and me. The Judgement isn't fire falling from the sky. It’s the mirror I face, it's the tears that I dry. The absolute truth in the dead of the dark, I need to be whole before I ask for your spark. I’m sorry I left. I’m sorry I ran. Just give me the time to become a real man. I let you go. (Echoing) Into the ether, into the flow. Rebuilding the temple, stone by stone. Missing your warmth in the cold and the lone. I'll find you again. When the frequency's right. When the shadows give way... to the light. Just wait. Just wait.
