Beating Of A Dying Heart
I sink into the memory you left behind
I let it flow into my dying lungs
There is only tattered shadows to find
We'll see what dawn has brung
Fading lights are consumed by restless nights
I breathe in the freezing air as I fail to sleep
Our fears, and courage have reached new heights
But my chest longs to weep
A loud wail exudes my lungs
A fateful cry released from my tense chest
From my my masks, and cloaks are flung
I will not die before I know rest
I know the lonely, and the agony of defeat
It knows me all too well
I have cried at your feet
But your tongue has always been sharp enough to impale
Dying lips mouth dry curses
Twisted souls rejoice
I sing the last of my verses
My end was my choice
I slip into sleep
Rest finally knows my name
You can hear the fading beeps
Reflected in a black frame
Asleep, but awake
I lay in a bed of white
That night my heart did break
Now I fade into eternal night
Take a look around you
Is there anything worth your life?
Another existence, I'll be made anew
I fade from under the knife
My heart was removed to save me from this pain
My soul stolen away
But I leave here an everlasting stain
Here only my memory will stay
So pray for me
Cry with me
Grieve with me
I finally know what it means to be free
A lost soul wonders the earth for repose
I find no rest but in my reflections of you
I can hear with faint ears what the dead knows
They cry, "Live a life without rue"
Fading is the night
It is consumed by my fire within
We are blinded by the light
It's so hard to tell where I begin
Perfection is never obtained
Flaws always remain
True life is never sustained
I leave on the table lasting stains
