Sinking in a sea of emptiness, alone
|
A solitude, an isolation, to living men unknown
|
Shadows of memories dance across my mind
|
Just beyond reach with the passing of time
|
Searching with blinded eyes
|
For a truth that once was
|
Feeling so alive
|
My mortality I deny
|
Shadows of memories
|
Dance across my mind
|
Now totally lost to the ghost of remembrance
|
No tears can I cry to quench the thirst of suffering
|
Looking on life as the altar with a saddened familiarity
|
Only now in madness can I see the simplicity
|
Silence of loneliness roars in my ears
|
My own heartbeat rhythm I've grown to fear
|
Seven times eternity I'm sentenced this living death
|
Grief and agony multiply with each and every breath
|
Blackness of space, vast space of time
|
To richness of life, my heart now blind
|
Memories of the past now torture my mind
|
Suffering for eternity no rest in dying
|
On stone ears fall my cries
|
Shadows of memories dance across my mind
|
Now barely able to bring me to another time
|
A time taken as something owed
|
Looking back I wish I'd chosen a different road
|
Now totally lost to the ghost of remembrance
|
No tears can I cry to quench the thirst of suffering
|
Each pain filled moment alone another black
|
Cross to bear
|
Silence the loneliness roars in my ears
|
On stone ears fall my cries
|
