The Blight
Opal In Sky Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Through paralysis I've been summoned
Ridding this life of a pitch-black entity
I am light and your end is coming
Just a blight in my veins
I'm cutting it out
Just a blight in my veins
I'm cutting it out
I'm enlightened
BLEGH!
This won't get the best of me
This won't get the best of me
Sightless blight swimming in my life it's far from graceful
(Just a pain fueled flame)
Senseless fight trying to take my mind I'm done being peaceful!
Cast aside your concept of light
Everything you're fighting for is waiting inside
I will cut this blight that is bleeding me dry
Taking its life so it can't take mine
Sad and how pathetic is the way it tries to feed on me
Kill it
Kill it
Kill it
I'm left broken from the loss of sleep
I'm exposed
Burning up slow
Sinking in the sand
To the vile below
Little did I notice there's something that I was born to be
Linking everything that I've known
It's time for me to see
Stars in me
Guide my fate
Break
These ties - that have kept you blank
Inside
All for
Grace
This time I will find a way
Cut the ties
Sightless blight swimming in my life it's far from graceful
(Just a pain fueled flame)
Senseless fight trying to take my mind I'm done being peaceful!
Cast aside your concept of light
Everything you're fighting for is waiting inside
I will cut this blight that is bleeding me dry
Taking its life so it can't take mine
Time
Is up, it's clear
I've got to step to face my fear
So I created a space
And I invited it in
I can feel
The balance of everything I've ever known has shifted
With symbiotic limbs
It tightens grip on my legs
I scream
Its fucking over
This life is not yours it's mine
I'll fucking lock you here and throw the key
It's finally over
Everything was different yet the same
Fell astray from the path but became what I needed to be
Everything was different yet the same
I was led in the dark
But I finally broke free
I've become the light
Fell astray from the path but became what I needed to be
I've become the light




I was led in the dark
But I finally broke free

Merely a destructive force within me

Sightless blight swimming in my life it's far from graceful
A blind and ugly affliction infiltrating my existence

A senseless battle trying to control my thoughts, I refuse to be peaceful anymore!

Reject your understanding of illumination

Everything you strive for is already within you

Taking its life so it can't take mine
Ending its existence to safeguard my own

Cut the ties
Sever the connections


Time
The moment


Is up, it's clear
It is over, evident and definite


I've got to step to face my fear
I must confront my fear by taking action


So I created a space
Thus, I crafted a space


And I invited it in
And I welcomed it inside


I can feel
I am aware


The balance of everything I've ever known has shifted
The equilibrium of all my prior knowledge has changed


With symbiotic limbs
Using interdependent limbs


It tightens grip on my legs
It tightens its grasp on my legs


I scream
I shout loudly


Its fucking over
It is completely finished


This life is not yours it's mine
This existence does not belong to you, it belongs to me


I'll fucking lock you here and throw the key
I will imprison you and discard the key


Everything was different yet the same
Everything underwent change but remained unchanged


Fell astray from the path but became what I needed to be
Strayed from the expected path but transformed into what I needed to become


I was led in the dark
I was guided in the darkness


But I finally broke free
But I eventually liberated myself


I've become the light
I have transformed into illumination
