Sylosis - Apparitions lyrics

How quick the seasons change The leaves turned from green to grey A flickering Apparition hovers above So familiar Yet so distant Preserved in age Icey hands support a somber face Like a curse of immortality Father time mocks me Through grave and tomb Past valley and precipice Emerges the ghost of retribution The horizon burns Set light by kin and blood A snake amongst us Has soured this soil Sometimes I hope you aren't looking down on me To witness what I've become Through time you will see what blinds you Beholder of all light Turn back the stone To your slumber return Suspended on a tide of obscurity A wraith missing a crown It almost feels like Time is standing still Yet somehow time Has drained me of my youth The years I've waited, Have all but slipped away, Torn from me Father time forever mocks me I have become, I have become powerless, Powerless I have become, I have become so emotionless Through time you will see what blinds you Beholder of all light Turn back the stone To your slumber return
