his heart is floating in the dark
and watery depths that held his mind
until the great thrust to the light

it wasn't his choice to be dragged across
the thin line between dawn and morning

the quickening
falls at your feet
sharp sound and bright to the eyes
unknown this feeling of life

consciousness and dreams alike
a dose of reality's potion
cries a desperate call in time
for a saviour from the starry ocean

the quickening
falls at your feet
oh, first taste of pain
a need to return again

sharp sound and bright to the eyes
unknown this feeling of life
a cage, a snare for the womb
released to sunset and ruin

...sun rising through it...
...sunset and ruin...
