about

The oldest song on the album both in composition and concept. This is a song very dear to heart as the original title stems from a writing session I had with my dear friend Tom Davy (current vocalist for Burning Shadows) back when we were in our first band together in 2004.

-Chris Dagenhart

lyrics

Verse One

5 AM, awaken to the day / The vestiges of the night
Fading as its giving way / To a bright rising ball of flame

Speeding waves of death / Come crashing to our shores
Incinerating all the lives / All we love, hate, adore

Chorus

This Searing Light, blinding lethal rays
Melting our eyes, tearing skin from our face

This Rising Sun, brighter than before
Flowering beautiful flames, sends humanity to its grave

Verse Two

For that brief searing moment / light is all we can see
That artificial sun / imprinted deep in our dreams

Standing tall, and alone / in the ruins of my life
There’s nothing here I’m all that’s left / in the wake of the rising sun

Bridge

In searing light we are exposed
For what we are, for what we were
In searing light we are exposed
For what we are for what we were
In searing light we are exposed
For what we never cared to know
In searing light we are exposed
For what we never thought to learn

The flowers fade as they wilt and die; their death, harbingering the beginning of holy Eschaton. The flowers bright, destructive light, forsake the seed of man, forsake the seed of man.

The Book of Eschaton
Chapter I, Verse III
