Into soothing silence I lapse
With a weary glazed stare
Lone are the footprints now
Delivarence found in pain
Whose sins am I atoning for?
Whose lapses must I undo?
Clothed with longing
Wearing sorrow day and night
I was born in sleet and snow
I've grown numb in the cold
Angushed from the sole being
Mislaid till the end of time
Wretched is my lot here
I'm forced down by this world
Dwelling in guilt and regret
Just a grim castaway
Graceful tunes on her lips have past to silence
Compelled to cherish the beauty in longing
The world is a barrow shrouded in black
I curse this ill-fated trail
There once was a time
When I resounded by your side
There once was a time
When I trembled under your eyes
Like sand slipping trough my fingers, nothing ever lasts
For the summer's dreams are bent and the songs are made of loss
Long are the evenings now, no terms with the days
No leading to walk aside the path paved with bitter thoughts
No tunes chime under the grasp of smothering grief
No rays of light lingers amidst the fathomless dark
Save me
I've lost the sun
Downhearted is the tune
Ill-lucked dweller in plight
