Shades of Death

In the shadows mist, I wake To a world so pale and fake Lost in the darkest thought And my body floats like a boat Through the veil of disillusion, I see The colors fading, draining from me A soulless existence, void of life Trapped in this endless night Shades of gray, surround my heart In this melancholy, I find my art Lost in a haze, I fade away In this world of shadows, I'll forever stay A symphony of agony, Echoes through the night, Each breath a futile plea, For an end to this blight. Shades of Death, surround my heart In this melancholy, I find my art Lost in a haze, I fade away In this world of shadows, I'll forever stay A solitary figure, In the forest's gloom, Haunted by the whisper, Of impending doom. Shades of Death, surround my heart In this melancholy, I find my art Lost in a haze, I fade away In this world of shadows, I'll forever stay
