Guiding Light

from Cruelty of Hope by Steampianist

lyrics

Translucent wisp
So delicate
You brave the wind and dare to coalesce before me
Floating there
You mote of dust
Small and naive, and still believes, impossible dreams


Invisible
You're barely there
Yet you insist on your creation
You just don't understand

There was a time
Long ago in the light
There the mountains and oceans i breathed into life
In endless skies I painted the constellations

Shining down
On the valleys and steppes
On the myriad planes of existence i dreamt
Where every word was spoken in celebration

But now silence reigns in every kingdom
The once bright pastures now but a dull grey
Hope then, is only a thin veneer
Something, something always gets in the way

Crisis
Disaster
Contradiction
Every single one different
All things die no exceptions

Always
The consequence of existence
An unavoidable spiral
back into the abyss

Or it could be me
An imperfect god
Near hollowed my soul, my heart,
My illumination

Growing dim
Or dim from the start
Small and naive, I used to believe like you

But now I know
I know I know for sure
I know I never was bright
Enough to spin hope into Life

I was a fool
To think myself an enlightened thing
To think I could turn
Translucent wisps into worlds

impossible dreams

(Ranto Lerula)

One last time
Despite all the reasons why
Despite all my failures I
Will shine you a new
Guiding light

Hoping just one last time
Despite all the reasons why
Despite all my failures I
Will shine you a new
Guiding light

One last time
