Testo Fugue's End

Testo Fugue's End

I have been undone
I took the wrong way out
I let compassion get the best of me
A task I could not
Continue to carry out
Now I remember everything.

Life was lived as the souless
Never questioning.
Immortal, non-ephemeral
Everlasting.

I've been called
Samael
Micahel
Azrael
Charon
The reaping one
I was all of these and
None.

I took the wrong way out
My self-awareness gave me dignity.
The things I had seen
My new conscience locked them out
Now I remember everything.

Warm like blood coursing through me
This new feeling rose.
Out of my cold dimension
Into what I chose

Out of my head and into the darkness
What is compassion, which is love?
Out of the cold rain into the starkness
As the dying wait in their blood.
And if I help them what will that mean?
Saving their lives or aiding death?
Now that I know my name shall I go on
Breathing free will with bated breath?

Out of the clear bliss into the dark deep
Stories you've told that are my own
I have awoken now from my deep sleep
Have I the strength to take you home?
All that I wanted was to protect you
Always too early, never late.
This is the choice, I know what I must do
Leave all of life and death to fate...
Come now and we will wander into the night where peace awaits your rest-
Into the dawn of darkness
