Nexus

Across the vein of night
 There cuts a path of searing light
 Burning like a beacon
 On the edges of our sight
 At the point of total darkness
 And the lights divine divide
 A soul can let its shadow stretch
 And land on either side
 Either side
 And balanced on the precipice
 The moment must reveal
 Naked in the face of time
 Our race within the wheel
 As we hang beneath the heavens
 And we hover over hell
 Our hearts become the instruments
 We learn to play so well
 Wealthy the spirit that knows its
 Own flight
 Stealthy the hunter who slays
 His own fright
 Blessed the traveler who journeys
 The length of the light
 Outside the pull of gravity
 Beyond the spectral veil
 Within our careful reasoning
 We search to no avail
 For the constant in the chaos
 For the fulcrum in the void
 Following a destiny
 Our steps cannot avoid
 Across the vein of night
 There cuts a path of searing light
 Burning like a beacon
 On the edges of our sight
 At the point of total darkness
 And the lights divine divide
 A soul can let its shadow
 Stretch and land on either side
 Wealthy the spirit that knows its
 Own flight
 Stealthy the hunter who slays
 His own fright
 Blessed the traveler who journeys
 The length of the light
 In a spiral never-ending
 Are we drawn towards the source
 Spinning at the mercy of an
 Unrelenting force
 So we stare into the emptiness
 And fall beneath the weight
 Circling the Nexus in a
 Fevered dance with fate
 Wealthy the spirit that knows its
 Own flight
 Stealthy the hunter who slays
 His own fright
 Blessed the traveler who journeys
 The length of the light
