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

So 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
