Echoes from the Womb
I danced within my hallowed abode
Screams from a familiar distance
Invade my hour glassed temper
Why am I here!
Do you remember?
Chemical warmth inside a prism unknown
Awoke in a freakish fertile tomb
Astral feeling from an alien reborn
I'm carried throughout the darkness
Gravity surrounds me
Where am I?
A new formation is my ongoing nightmare
The call is getting nearer
From the depths of darkness
A world explored passes me by
The opening of the light
The first scream, scare and the fight
A labouring pain torn away my past
What will happen now?
Is this new world to be my last?
