Departe

Silence moving away from your form Silent night closing in in your soul Everlasting memories to drown Endless nightmares to follow you When you cannot wake Pure life, entiwined in all these tears How can I understand? Real life, without you by my side How can I wake up? And though i wished To turn the hands of time How can I understand? And though I wished To bring you here again How can I wake up? How can I be there To kneel when i need you How can I be there Just to see me for long as to who I am Departing How can I be there Just to see my anguish How can I be there Just to see me longing one more time Departing How can I be there For long for everything For the years that i've lost just to be with you Departing How can I be there Just to see my anguish How can I be there Just to see me suffer one last time Departing Though I wished and though i tried I will bring you back again Though I wished and though I tried I will be for you right here And though i wished To turn the hands of time How can I understand? And though I wished To bring you here again How can I wake up?

[Part I: Then] Silvered white stone The gorge slopes reach tall Into low clouds For a glory known only to dead things And thus perhaps without value Yet the diggers and the wanderers In their hopes of extracting that very sliver Of flaccid meaning Every so often migrate Trudging near-aimlessly Along the gloomy banks of contrivance Eyes darting to one side and the other Resting only in halted progress All the while longing To cast off their robes And tear off their ropes Reformed in the clear light of day And the black fear of night Channels for what is and what is not [Part II: Glory] The drain The fog The undressed walkers pass The lifeless downward streams Flow upon their feet The time was then And now they wander ...entranced

So much I've lost In cheerless life So much pain and suffering behind It's time to step aside I used to think that I can fall But now I see how fragile was I How slashed all inside It's time to step aside It's time to leave this place Here I am empty and alone I gave my heart I gave my all And now the bridge between two worlds is broken The starless night that covers me Softly whispering my name Carry me away And wash my sins In the ocean of my tears

I could see all your despair I could try to bring you closer Past these walls I only surrender And I'll know I won't escape I'll leave this world and I'll come to find you When nothing's there to bring me back How will I know what lies behind us How could I see in all this dark? No reason, no hope And the air I breathe stains my lungs The sleepless mind surrounded by Nothing The air I breathe pains my lungs The hours stop by Your voiceless soul Hurts my heart The wait, the memories But there's no one there No hope for those who are lost

Floating around in nothingness In the darkness of night and the sea Like driftwood sailing these waves Tell me who I am and who I’ll be Lost at the sea of memories On my way to shores unknown Unbeknownst to my (final) destiny I am lost and on my own As I am here What comes next the future will tell I carry my past I know I’ve been through hell And I was there Drowning in this ocean of misery Take me away Let this water cleanse me Drifting away, to a brighter place Drifting away, from wretchedness Drifting away, chasing my dreams Drifting away, from my regrets Drifting away, away from this hell Drifting away Drifting away Floating on this sea of my memories Will I wash ashore free from pain What is my final destiny As I reach these shores unknown Is it a new begin Is it a new life Or am I coming home

Winter fell white And covered me with its frost And the light takes The robe of the shivering tears Once the night came And all thoughts were drowned in white I was nowhere Nowhere to be found Binding your hopes While the snow is still here Bring me your thoughts To keep them forevermore Bring me your pain To keep it inside of me Let me take you far from this cold and grief I will find a way To come to you I will find a way to keep you near I gave my heart away
