Flicker Of Hope
Noctisylum
[Verse]
In the night I roam lost in haze
Echoes of a past replaying days
Darkness veils the path I tread
Whispering voices fill my head
[Verse 2]
Shadows swirl around my cry
Beneath a scarlet bleeding sky
The sun is far its light so cold
In this tale of hardship told
[Chorus]
But there’s a glimmer a flicker bright
A distant star within my sight
Through the storm and broken glass
Hope clings on this too shall pass
[Verse 3]
I see faces in the smoke
Murmured prayers words they spoke
Their hands reach out from beyond
A phantom touch almost fond
[Bridge]
Steps falter heartbeats slow
Cresting waves in undertow
Yet I swim against the tide
For hope I clutch refuse to hide
[Chorus]
But there’s a glimmer a flicker bright
A distant star within my sight
Through the storm and broken glass
Hope clings on this too shall pass
