"Grave Warden" lyrics

I've been waiting...
I've been waiting so long
To walk the path I've feared to tread
Now it's time to hold communion
You dance around the lights I feel your movements
Shadows or peripheral illusions
There's still so much I need to say...

I buried you so long ago
But I'm still here, trapped in my own revery
I often return to reflect on
The darkness I can't fully perceive
Light is not welcome here, don't illuminate my fears
I am welcome if you're shown due reverence
I will not disturb your rest

Just another ghost to the agony
I couldn't find myself so I'm damned to live in eternity
Perception phased in flux
Is reality falling away from me now?
Often wonder, if I'm destined to ever reach my recovery
Cause right now I'm nothing more than a voice for the dead
So hear me out...

I am a weaver of death
Wrapping my former self within a shawl of oblivion
I guard your grave with care, blessed with a curse
A burden I'm bound to bare

You lost your way back then
You had to die so that I could live again...

May you never rise again, you won't destroy what I have built
Rise again, you are the catalyst of grief & guilt

Just another ghost to the agony
I couldn't find myself so I'm damned to live in eternity
Perception phased in flux
Is reality falling away from me now?
Often wonder, if I'm destined to ever reach my recovery
Cause right now I'm nothing more than a voice for the dead...

Burn, burn for me
Light the pyres that may finally set me free...
I guard your grave with care, blessed with a curse
A burden I must bare
