As if nailed to the bed

He lies motionless

Drowning in the deafening wind of a presence unknown

With a feeling of being

Lifted through the ceiling

The beckoning of elysian fields

An infinite prism

Injecting all agendas

Bartering life

In exchange for absolution

This knowledge will bring

A horrendous intention

Told throughout eons

His return is definite

Awakened by a sound

Of an experiment's malfunction

Realizing he is in his lab and

Far away from home

Investigating disruptions

He relinquished his chair

As a familiar voice is heard

Revealing past timelines

With visions of a frozen world

Parallels of a boundless one

Who transcends dimensions

He fights to focus

For his work must be

Kept in secret

Sequestered in his research

Learning to manipulate a stellar mass

Defeated from years of

Failure to find his purpose

A formless being guides his hand

To accelerate the machine

Symphonies of endless destruction

Play as the atoms collide

The forming of a hollowed realm

Only death and rebirth wait inside

Accepting his destiny

He faces the beast from his dreams

Reflections are all that he sees

A paradox he's forced to repeat

As the universe is slowly disassembled

A former life is recalled by a king

Understanding the one true intention

He welcomes reawakening
