Take care in where you lay,
The soul alone is not fit to stay,
Time for change, reset the stage,
Tether up your fears at bay.
Hope to flee the fool that follows you,
Hide from your shadow in shade,
Blame the blackened form beneath you,
Come dusk even darkness will fade.
The core brought bare inside this garment,
Inside this armor assumed none would harm it,
Suit up and hope that its the last,
Hoarding power but shed just as fast.
Each chord that wraps will bind and blind,
Each layer will shield and save the soul,
Darkness is death or slumber or safety,
You're here because you lost control.
