[Verse 1]
As the seasons turn and spoil
A crooked axis guides my way
Down unsung paths that burn out
The most hardened of drifters
[Chorus]
Still I wander endlessly
Through houses turned to graves
A stone in the eyes of humankind
Forever at bay
Held captive by untold wounds
Of corporeal and psychic root
Aloft in a storm of unseen anguish
Where joy and sorrow entwine
[Verse 2]
Can I shake free the detritus of these countless, vagrant years?
Can I harness the wild flame that lays dormant deep within?
[Chorus]
Still I wander endlessly
Through houses turned to graves
A stone in the eyes of humankind
Forever at bay
Held captive by untold wounds
Of corporeal and psychic root
Aloft in a storm of unseen anguish
Where joy and sorrow entwine
[Instrumental Break]
[Bridge]
A fire burns deep in the citadel of my weary heart
A fire burns deep in the citadel of my weary heart
[Verse 3]
I will break free from captivity
I will weather the storm
I will shake free from detritus
I will harness the wild flame
