Eternal Home
The Pitch black curtain closed
That was it, my life
It had ended so abruptly
Sliced so evenly by a knife
Painted with crimson red
And smothered in black
Smoldering ashes fall
Me, riding from the back
I looked around confused
Nothing but tarnished gray
And a blinding white light
While the World just faded away
Colors seemed to die
Never actually, truly there
Just something we imagined
Like everything we hear
I saw the world that moment
Saw it for what it was
It was nothing really pretty
Just platforms covered in fuzz
And steel gray mountains
From one end to the other
Everything stood on its own
Never claiming their own brother
It was colorless and sad
But strangely beautiful at best
When no one was talking
Life was one gigantic test
So the world faded away
Farther and farther it reached
And farther and farther i ran
Until my eternal home was breached
That was it, my life
It had ended so abruptly
Sliced so evenly by a knife
Painted with crimson red
And smothered in black
Smoldering ashes fall
Me, riding from the back
I looked around confused
Nothing but tarnished gray
And a blinding white light
While the World just faded away
Colors seemed to die
Never actually, truly there
Just something we imagined
Like everything we hear
I saw the world that moment
Saw it for what it was
It was nothing really pretty
Just platforms covered in fuzz
And steel gray mountains
From one end to the other
Everything stood on its own
Never claiming their own brother
It was colorless and sad
But strangely beautiful at best
When no one was talking
Life was one gigantic test
So the world faded away
Farther and farther it reached
And farther and farther i ran
Until my eternal home was breached
