"wither/ascend" [artist: stavesacre]

the pain will come with the morning sun
will the night betray the day
blistered skin withered from within
scratch to shed this shell away
will you know my name or will i hang my head in shame
will someone take this tired skin that i've been dying in
will someone hold me to the light and if I die tonight
then take this broken man and wrap me tight within this brand new skin
...
watch me fly
freedom like wings and i will use them
freedom like wings and i will spread them wide
watch me fly...
freedom my wings...
freedom my wings...
and rise
one day my ashes will return to earthly slumber
spread far and wide across the desert and the sea
until then i will live each day in awe and wonder
look forward to each sunrise
