Dying days of despair
|
Are the mirrors of pain
|
The glass in which I stare
|
Are slowly building a palace in my mind
|
Where the memories breeds my fear
|
With halls of mourning and with walls of bitter loss
|
|
The world around me dies
|
As the seasons change
|
The water turns to ice
|
And another year will push the past
|
Further back into forgetfulness
|
Among the moments never to return again
|
|
Lives are spread by the wind
|
Growing further apart
|
Can't return what has been
|
I will never again touch those winters
|
Or the shadows of the fall
|
Never the innocence, the light of each day
|
|
Tell me now, where's the end to our strive
|
Shattered life, the point where freedom dies
|
Behold my eyes, can't you see I'm terrified
|
Desperate holding on to a distant time
|
|
Life Shatters
|
|
Lives are spread by the wind
|
Growing further apart
|
Can't return what has been
|
I will never again touch those winters
|
Or the shadows of the fall
|
Never the innocence, the light of each day
|
|
So paint the edge with tears
|
Of a perished emotion
|
A wound so severe
|
And much too deep to be erased
|
By the healing hands of time
|
That life has withered, and is gone forevermore
|
