Etched Oath

Where names dissolve and breath runs thin
I left my vow like marks on skin
The sky was fractured, stars stood still
I swore to stand through every chill
In every crack, in every tear
I held a thread too dark to bear

Let breath forget the paths I've crossed
Let winds erase what I have lost
Let silence reign, let thunder speak
This oath is mine, It does not break

Through every doubt, through every test
Through clawing dark and shallow rest
I stand
Until all light and flesh are gone

The world begin to fade
The truths I knew became a blade
I staggered through the hollow air
Uncertain if there's meaning there

Let breath forget the paths I've crossed
Let winds erase what I have lost
Let silence reign, let thunder speak
This oath is mine, It does not break

Through every doubt, through every test
Through clawing dark and shallow rest
I stand
Until all light and flesh are gone
