In Adversity

(album: A Valediction - 2021)

Maelstrom calls and I will fade away
Our hopes dissolve in human clay
When tribulation scores and your beliefs escape
My faith will dwell in eclectic shape

Above the sky, beyond the stars
Just let me fly, embraced with scars
Into the void, with fire faith destroyed
The dying of the light, in pale dismal night

We are the damned, we are enslaved
We are the cursed, enforced in vain
We are the doomed, we are constrained
We are the spoiled, in grief and pain

My downfall calls, and I pursue my way
We stay the course in slow decay
When adversity occurs and your eyes ablaze
My wish remained in confusing maze

Above the sky, beyond the stars
Just let me fly, embraced with scars
Into the void, with fire faith destroyed
The dying of the light, in pale dismal night

Above the sky, beyond the stars
Just let me fly, embraced with scars
Into the void, with fire faith destroyed
The dying of the light, in pale dismal night
