Desolate
written by: Jak Locke

version 1:
from Afterimage Chaser (May 6th 2000) (5:48)
Any whispers fade to blue in this realm of me and you
Severed from the source of light, left inside eternal night

Gone again another friend they all keep leaving til the end
Slighted in the final rain yet I pass this way again

Where's the limit to this path, when's the ending's aftermath
Never more again to fade underneath a sunlit glade

Fazed to see another wall if there’s any bounds at all
Kissed another fate goodbye with its remnant we will lie

There's the path I've walked before, like a gate it's my youth's door
If I only could forget, life might not be so desolate

version 2:
from The One-Eyed Jacks: Live (December 9th 2002) (4:05)
Any whispers fade to blue in this realm of me and you
Severed from the source of light, left inside eternal night

Gone again another friend they all keep leaving til the end
Slighted in the final rain yet I pass this way again

Where's the limit to this path, when's the ending's aftermath
Never more again to fade underneath a sunlit glade

There's the path I've walked before, like a gate it's my youth's door
