Caligula's Horse - Alone In The World

 

You?re gone
You?re lost in a world of your own design
Alone,
Humanity?s long since been left behind

And would you believe that i once felt your pain?
(although it?s far behind me now)
It seems so strange to me that in pain you still believe

And i see a light ahead
A template for all my ambitions
Life lays bare before
Meaning disinterred
I?m welcoming my liberation

Moral,
You call me what you will and cast me away
I know
And in the depth of my ignorance i?m not afraid

And would you believe that i once felt your pain?
It seems so strange to me that in pain you still believe

And i see a light ahead
A template for all my ambitions
As a new day dawns
On an empty world
I?m welcoming my liberation

I?m alone in the world
A husk fading petty and destined
And i stay my mind
From futile tries at
Reaching for exoneration

I?m lost in the stars above
Consumed in my reflection
Distracted from my condemnation
They join me in consciousness

I can?t
Remember a time when days flickered
Like their cold light
Care passed like season
And love was free of all reason.

My reason is as trivial as senses pervaded
By a final nostalgic scent
I inhale once more
Knowing the dreams i won?t live don?t matter

(leave it behind)
