Atum Nophi - True North

When the sun is gone
There's still a shadow
It follows you around
You wish you could let it go
You want to lead it out
But you're holding it close
For that is all you've ever known
The colours fading out
You reached a plateau
After the wound became a scar
You saw a star glow
Before your eyes it drew
A path to follow
That the shadow would allow

Here you are now
Surfaced the undertow
Resentment left at sea
You made it to the shore
Afar you see the waves
They swallowed your doubts
Yeah, they swallowed them all
You see a flower grow
On this weeping willow
In this realm that is now your own
Despair became hope
The demons that you fought
Carved you to make you whole

Now
The compass you built
Is pointing true north
Towards your own growth
On this path you found
Forgiveness and love
The shadow's dead and gone. It's gone

You see it's fucking gone

Lost in the desert
Forever you roamed
You finally found yourself
Where you'd never had thought
You might have forgiven
But you will never forget
The only way, you learned
To outgrow the pain

Now
The compass you built
Is pointing true north
Towards your own growth
On this path you found
Forgiveness and love
The shadow's dead and gone. It's gone

The shadow's dead and gone
I said
The shadow's dead and gone
