"Strata" lyrics

Felt around the shadow lands
Seeking out the light of the past
A piece of us remains down there
Embers waiting to catch

Words of a familiar tale
Echo out, never finding their home
Lucidity - a heavy weight
Cut the nerves down until they are numb

So hollow
Follow down to the end
Walls [?]
Unravel all in the end

Staring down the bitter well
We see ourselves
Far beyond broken time
An empty cell

Looking back, the scene has set
No control
Desperate memories
Growing cold

Look upon the glinting blade
Driven into dull embrace
