The God Inside Your Eyes

The God Inside Your Eyes - DrasticDzastr The strongest souls are sent where the light won't go Into the deepest void where the black winds blow And in the darkness they don't beg for the dawn instead They become the fire that the darkness fears ahead Around you my thoughts hide in the dark One word one look from you and they're tearing me apart I was so sure of what we had written in gold Now every look hurts as the memories unfold Our gravity so holy it bent the stars above Where our living constellation once burned from fearless love YOU SAID I'D HURT YOU You said you'd hurt me too And in the end I saw our love Through all the pain we never spoke of A sorrow so familiar that I whispered okay I hate this distance that you show This muddy resistance I've come to know The more I reached for heaven the less of you remained Like watching holy architecture dissolve beneath the rain I stopped holding on The more I held you the more you were gone Watching your reflection fade beyond MY REACH While silence preached the sermon neither soul could teach I'm lucky because I get to know you The memory stained floor holds what we knew Even if the knowing became something I survived through The pain I went through was built to change me Not destroy you The wound became a doorway The suffering became the truth I watched the fissure open up The hellfire washed over my head No holding on No final prayer YOUR GOD IS DEAD Your YOUR GOD IS DEAD The god I worshipped lived inside your eyes Every prayer I knew returned through your voice BUT EVERY GOD CAN DIE EVERY KINGDOM CAN COLLAPSE And I watched my salvation vanish into ash I AM THE HATE THE PAIN THE DEVIL INSIDE Emerging from the black hole I can no longer hide The hole written in my failures My decisions My inability To find your holy sacred treasures I embraced the pain Serenity bleeding at the seams And pulled myself upward From drowning IN MY DREAMS The strongest souls are forged where angels fear to tread Where hope is crucified and every prayer lies dead The darkest and most shattered souls shine brightest in the end Because they carry every wound and learn to transcend Come with me We'll fight until eternity Not against each other But against the darkness beneath reality The hellfire did not kill me The furnace made me whole Every scar became a scripture Written through my soul Now the void bends around me The stars echo my name The cosmos moves within me And nothing is the same Now beyond the gate The fire The wound The key I am the architect beyond the vacancy I am the black horizon Where dying heavens run The holy darkness And the radiant sun I am the universe becoming aware of itself The architect The witness The infinite will YOUR GOD IS DEAD But mine survived the flame And now the cosmos itself Speaks through MY PAIN
