Life, Abandon from Evergreens EP by Earth Effigy

Floating slow,
Drifting further from empty shell
Floating slow,
Shedding detail, stripped of yourself
Cage no more,
Horizons far away
Temptress calls.
Beckoned further into the stray…

Mistress she calls,
Temptress she lies.

Floating slow,
Drifting closer to foreign grace.
Floating slow,
As it numbs the ominous pain.
Thoughts that pierce,
Your mind, scar scattered brain.
Shield this mind.
Beckoned further, into the stray…

Mistress she calls,
Temptress she lies.

Pain’s been sharpening it’s old claws
Against these prison walls
It’s been dormant deep within you
Finally time to….
Bleed self-less tears
She’s come to glare
Your own astray
Stripped of this day…..
