Sky of dark gray has vanished from my view The touch of her warm embrace has shown many tears To be deprived is to remember the pain of one This winter of black is the harbinger of my fear With each passing day, my love for life withers away Life withers away The face of joy I once wore, is only a dream Only a dream And with the kiss, darkness began to seal The bitterness and the joy My sadness birthed from this pain Why am I so alone? And with a sigh, the walls of my sanity Collapsed within and without My life will fade away Is this forever? This facade of fading happiness, has been shattered Sense the moon rising over my, my plains of despair, eternal I shall rest in this dead garden, decorated with tombs And await her arrival, from behind the black sun The souls in the candle fade And my eyes, they rest forever With the portrait of the shade Carved deep in my dying soul My dying soul

Thy kingdom has been lost under the sword The trials of my defeat have cast me away In sorrow I now flee to where day left dead The dark seas of despair now hold my shame As thy tomb is sealed, the waters flood with grief With each passing tide, the sadness destroys my faith I foresee the dawn, just beyond the barren plains Though my sight is gone, the sun will welcome me The dark fragments descend Fragile shards from high above And a heart beneath this blackness below My soul bound by the dead of natures hold Forever caressed by the stillness That decays the unloved Forever consumed by this undying sadness Take away this cold form of death No more shall blood flow through these veins Now lost, shifting through the red waves Take my lifeless form and end my hell For thy kingdom is no more My eyes are closed, I cannot see This world of death has conquered me My eyes are closed, I cannot see Take away the pain of this world The shades of black now turn to gray The pulse of this sorrow now fades Take my madid world of selfless lies No more love for this world "As shadows asway the soul... I realize I am finally at peace"

O'er shores of silence Beyond the sands Of time and hallowed ways I now know the truth O' impious ones of 'God' Your ways are of denial For the fears of life And the embrace of death This world is of those that follow The ways of my past that are gone There is no 'God' only the misery of life This sorrow is all there ever will be For me there's no happiness in this world Only the pain of knowing my fate To meet the black is to know defeat For my memories is all that I have

Behold the day, that has fallen dark Lament the passing, of youth and all it's joy's Behold the cross, ideas he has hidden behind Witness his contempt, for his existence and lies When will the sunlight fade Unleashing death to resolve his pain? For no longer, will he suffer In this hell he has known Take his soul Far away From the sadness Of this world Unto thee The wrath of his ills To heal and receive The pain we have endured Willingly I accept In spite of my own life Life for this young man, was it but a dream too? It's filled with hopeful embrace for new discoveries This life, it was but a dream in a distant memory But when his fate was sealed, another dream was sadly destroyed Give unto thee The power to recreate The beginnings of his life And the threads of his humanity For I would raze His existence of all fear And condemn his 'God' To the life he has suffered through Take his soul away From the sadness Of this world
