Meaning of some lyrics (Anathem-Angelica)

Hi guys,

I was wondering if you could please explain the meaning of this lyrics. It is a little bit confusing for me.


Where are you tonight?
Wild flower in starlit heaven
Still enchanted in flight
Obsessions lament to freedom

A timeless word, the meanings changed
But I'm still burning in your flames,
Incessant, lustral masquerade,
Unengaged, dim lit love didn't taste the same

And I still wonder if you ever wonder the same
And I wonder...

Much of it is just vague imagery. If you understand the meanings of the words (or can look them up) then your guess is probably as good as anyone's. I wonder whether "Obsessions" should actually be "Obsession's" (possessive) and/or "meanings" should be "meaning's" (= meaning has).
