Seep into your veins like a black dye Infecting the petals of a once white rose Encounter this true emptiness with open arms Like a lover meets his other half You find yourself lacking without it Yin without its yang but it is all a lie Sweet despair scorching the tongue A simple reminder that life will come to an end Take your soul to this empty place Minimal inception keeps your mind at ease Consume the darkness, become one With this Stygian void In the end, a hope for a better life will fade In the end, like the stars you will turn to dust In the end, salvation will be out of reach In the end, fate was wrong Keep your head above the flowing tide Only fate knows how this journey will end Burned alive by perfection Or swallowed by this river of darkness The medium required for survival is found by few Hold still as you navigate this empty vessel Unable to see, trust fate will guide your way The stars will fall one by one The strings that hold them snapping Under the weight of wishes placed upon them Wish may with all your might But in the end, the sky will go dark
