Just looking to see what people think of the song and structure mainly, this is just the bare bones demo and i will be re-recording vocals, guitars, as well as more acoustic instruments. The album is a psychological trip about waking up to both the beauty and the horror in the world and this song is kinda the culmination of that.

Lyrics

“I can see your future now.

How many wanted it more?
And how many gave it all
But never see their way inside
The deepest pit within the eye,
Descended fast
Then sank much further,
The oldest man
Has waited for you.
How many wanted it more?
And how many gave it all?
They left you here within the night,
You compromise and cling to light,
But all that's passed!
Can’t go no further!
This all dissolves?
So make your purpose.”

Unfurl me at the seams,
You’re wrong,
You’re wrong.
There is her great fire
Blazing
In my eye,
Can’t die.

“I can see your future 
now.
Future, Now!
Lost then found,
So receive it like your
crown
Or a shroud,
You’re unbound.
I can see your future-

But all I had to say
Is empty in this bitter wake.
You’ll leave here anyway;
Moths into the flames.
I can wait,
I could explain that we’re alone,
How we will meet again below,
Just like before.”

So all along it seems
You’re right
You’re right,
But for her grand pyre?
Her great fire?
My eyes,
My life!
We’re all alone at sea,
You’re right,
You’re right.
But I'll be that man on fire,
A grand pyre,
Morningstar,
Come on.

“Then you'll always
See light that shines 
outside of your window
That Venus brings.”
I tell you I want more!
I Want more!
Want more!
More!
More!
“But there’s always
A darkened sky
That's guiding her drift
Home
To kiss these waves.”
I'll tell you this once more,
I want more!
Want more!
Again!
Again!

And I really like the way
It washed right over me,
I need to light the way
I don't care what this means.

“I can see your future 
now.
Future, Now!
Lost then found,
So receive it like your
crown
Or a shroud,
You’re unbound.
I can see your future 
now.
Future Now!
Look around
As your stars come raining 
Down
Falling down
Through the clouds
While my seas open up”
