Gather Round The Violet Flame
Whilst I spin this tale 
Of beings of light and glory 
That ended up in jail

Upon this prison planet 
Darkness claimed the throne 
The light retreated from this space
So truth remained unknown

The existence of a realm
Outside of time and space
Where beings of light and glory
Dreamed of a humane race

Magnificent though they were 
They longed for even more 
So they created space and time 
And opened heaven's door

They filled the space with suns 
And planets soon were born 
They gazed upon the wonder 
That they would soon adorn

All forms of life and matter 
With everything in place 
The stage was set the time was right
Thence came the human race

Free will was gifted to them 
The choice was theirs to make 
The path of light or darkness 
Was up to them to take

I tell you now dear ones 
Which ever path you choose 
That all roads lead to home 
Our love can never lose

I've wrapped my wings around you
And whispered in your ear
The time for change is coming
Indeed... it's truly here.

It is from heaven, that I descend
To where the light is naught
I gather up the souls with hope
And share with them this thought

It's from the light that we all came
and into darkness fell
And on the earthly plane exist
But heaven's where we dwell

You've forgotten who you are
And from whence you came
It's Heaven where you truly live
Not on this earthly plane

We've played the game of life and love
The wars we've lost and won
We lived and died a million times
So tell me... was it fun?

What lessons have you really learned?
And to what did you attend?
Graduation time is finally here!
I bid you... now ascend........
