Tempest

In time, you will bend to my will and you'll know
All the reasons for your bleak existence
Though it's taken so long just to see, you've been lost in me
Suffering through all the perils that I lay before you
There's nowhere left for you to turn
Now close your eyes and embrace this illusion
While you burn

Your penance, is to follow me into these shadows
Never knowing if you will return
And our fathers lie dormant in sorrow, as the fears flow deep
Wind whips the shallows as I lay the path of resistence
Who says martyrs never learn?
Now it's all you can do but surrender, while the vortex turns

When the storm comes rushing in and there's nowhere left to turn
In the eye will show the truth that we've yet to learn
When there's no one left to blame, and now all your will is gone
You'll look back and you will see where you went wrong

This is now the final hour
A tempest looms over our empty decaying lives
There's no way to stop the coming wave
Our star has descended, horizons now slipping away

When the storm comes rushing in and there's nowhere left to turn
In the eye will show the truth that we've yet to learn
When there's no one left to blame, and now all your will is gone
You'll look back and you will see where you went wrong

In the low dimming light
Slowly fading into night
Though our prison was only a dream
Only after it's over we see

What does this wandering storm have in store?
