Fragments

Lyrics © 2020 Song © 2026

And again I sought shelter in the Dark Realms
that place within and far down
where He said he would create a safe space
deep underground

I named it our Secret Garden
where I could lie and watch the skies darken

Oh I should have seen the danger
of addiction to this mayhem
the eyes of the stranger
in the mirror made no prediction
of the craving
that would arise
from just the short, sweet, taste of freedom
teasing me awake in the early morning
burning in my dreamtime warning
where I wandered unhappily seeking
my mind running rings around itself
until at last exhausted
I collapsed at his feet
where I was rewarded
with a fleeting kind of peace

but nothing could tame the tempests
raging through my psyche
fighting to take me home to him
outraged I battled them blindly
furious at needing to lose myself in him
utterly despairing at the dark pit of Chaos
which every fibre of my being yearned to hurl myself into
and be finally done with this shattering of self
like a mirror smashed captures infinite realities
my being fragmented along the timelines
back to a Moment forever frozen
in the icy wastelands of Hell.
