Shadow

Through the eternal I have traveled.
Past the fallen, past the the face of time
Standing on the edge of what you left me
Needing all the hope just to survive

Leading me away, Taking me away
I cannot pass the shadow on my own.

The image on the hill is crucified
blood runs constant, never ending
Bathing in the life you left behind
Needing all you promised just to hide

Leading me to astray, taking all away
I cannot pass the Shadow on my own.

Reading of the truth in which you promised
words of fallen mortals, falling shallow
Riddles, myths, and legends written down
Needing all I see just to follow.

Leading me again, taking me again
I cannot pass this shadow on my own

Now I put the pieces back together
Fallen bloody words fit perfectly
Revealing what was hidden in plain sight
Needing to understand where you are

Leading me to truth, taking doubt away
I cannot pass this shadow for it is me.
