The life you lived before is gone Led beyond the pale by the cruel and distant Sun Forever now beyond our reach Your features frozen in a callous mimickry Twilight sounds Outstretched hands Those you loved were the ones that watched you drown The light that lit your eyes is gone Turned to alabaster as your life had just begun Stood alone in empty space Eternal child with age now etched upon your face Cursed to see you turned to stone and cursed to watch you fall Cursed to see you take your place among the bright and beautiful Twilight sounds Outstretched hands Those you loved were the ones that watched you drown Those that survive bear the burden of blame No mention be made of the forbidden name Stand fast against the cruel winters rage Wait for the dawn and the light of a wiser age Et lux perpetua luceat eis

Bleak endless winter Curse this cold Never ending night of misery You are silent Will you save me in the end? Nobody can carry your burden Bowed low in the grip of disease Crestfallen, forsaken Please take this bitter cup from me Soul wasting sorrow Broken again I close my eyes, let it wash over me Lost in darkness Will you save us once again? Futile listless cries A slow demise All is wasted Stone cold faces Look away Far below them, slowly we creep Sometimes this feels like there's nothing left You failed the test is this punishment? They twisted your words to condemn us Was it ever the way they were meant They fall silent As they turn From the helpless, from the weak As they turn from the weak

Losing ground Numbed and bound Silent tears Burn these eyes Loved once, now despised Wake Face this day As hope recedes See this light Fading in time When do you No long try in vain? To reach out one more time Opened doors Closed again and again You are always in my thoughts Two summer children Never forgotten Shadows have fallen On me Walk away One with pain Within my room All these words Never heard So far away you cannot know My children Never forsaken Your light is fading From me You are always in my thoughts Never forgotten Never forsaken Father bid farewell to your children No longer there to watch over them Hear their express their disdain for you Too far away to explain While someone else has taken your place She is their keeper and their defence Shielded as they are from your influence Watch as they drift far away Never again will you see them play No one else can take their place Sometimes living is all that is left Some say another day us coming soon So much time is lost So much time.

It's coming to us all No matter where we run Here and now is all we have Let all be said, let all be done Every second closer I think I see the shadows approach No one knows the hour No one knows the day In one moment Death becomes us We trim the branches But still one thing holds true When the flood approaches We are bound to the earth by the roots All is loss and all is vanity A chasing after winds In shadows grasp at shallow sanity Life ends as it begins The whispers of our own humanity Remind us of our sins And our pride and in our vanity We try to catch the winds A quality of life A true and loyal friend A still and quiet mind with which to face the end No one knows the hour No one knows the day In one moment In one final breath Death becomes us

At times it seems nobody knows, nobody cares The road I've walked, the weight I've borne The blood I've given the blood I've shed The graven years upon my face When all that is sure turns to dust in my hands I find myself in a place where no one stands And there is no one here to find No one to turn my heart to gold No light to pierce my blinded sight No hand to nourish this dying soul I was wrong, was lost, was gripped by fear had pain, had loss, had wounds to heal You were there when I was consumed To hold and love and whisper dear Found here as a man laid bare

Another wasted night Running from a falling star Waking in the shadows Wondering who and where you are Longing for the morning Wishing you were far from here In another lifetime Where the lies and truth are clear Onwards we travel Always moving forwards Our damned curiosity Self destructive vanity Must we take this path again? What knowledge will we gain? I won't be alive When the changes come around How can we survive Running to the siren's sound No one lives to see What becomes of all we knew Another tragedy Another rage is coming through I am wandering far from here In another time and another place There is no one left but me Set adrift from the rest of the human race I can see what I want to see And become anything that I want to be Drinking from poisoned streams Losing touch with self in a fraying reality I see it all coming down All journeys end.
