Wilderness of Reasons

tenebris animorum inconsideratorum
mens mea perturbatur

Sun is cold, the wind it burns my face
the air is thin, of life there is no trace
leaves are dancing, beneath my feet they spin
from trees they've fallen, a game they couldn't win

The snow lies deep, it covers all that was
stars shine dim, they're simply there because
a drift builds slowly, enclosing me within
my thoughts come slower, I'm frozen in a grin

Surrounded by the seasons
I'll find myself today
in the wilderness of reasons
my mind's in disarray

I can't find the only way

The heat is rising, it's scorching all I see
a fire river boiling, runs scalding to the sea
rays of heat shine down and burn life away
swept across the ground, destroying what they may

Surrounded by the seasons
a break in the routine
in the wilderness of reasons
my life is now a dream

I can't seem to find the only way
help me find the way
I'm lost in the woods and I feel no emotion
I'm desperate for strength and I've lost my devotion

Soon rebirth begins, the dawn of a new day
to replace all that was, to mold it out of clay
the rain begins to fall, through endless sky it's tossed
time has claimed its due, to regain what's been lost

Surrounded by the seasons
I'll find myself today
in the wilderness of reasons
my mind's in disarray

I can't find the only way
