In Avoidance
11:36
|

Death
Deaths near
Tonight
Resist
The light
The dark
Writhes
The pain I feel
Hopeless in time
The nurses all in white
Wait on you through the night
Sirens and the light
Agony to my mind
Rest easy now my love
Please don't go into the light
Listen to my voice
Please don't go into the dark
Just rest now my heart
Calm, collect, avoidant of neglect
My eyes sting and burn
Tears I've shed
Shed for us
A world without you here
Is a world not meant for me
The crying skies
Filling up the sea
Harrowing view in my sight
I'll keep this pain
Keep it inside
The loneliness that I will endure
The ground is gone
I drift into a void
Turmoil inside to pull the cord
My heart still beats for you
I stay the course
My heart still beats for you
I stay the course
I weep
I'll stay the course

The Pain of Hope
08:22
|

Hoping the grave
Hasn't marked your name
We belong
We belong in each others arms
Cold and empty world
Without you by my side
Its not just a loss
But the end of our time
The end of my heart
Cower to the thought
Of you being gone
Guiding myself through the world
How useless I would be
I only care if you continue on
So I fight back the tears
Death won't take you from me
We'll see it to the end
Take my hand and watch the sun rise
Open up your eyes and see me sitting here
You mean more than the world
So stay with me
We are worse off than I thought
Our time stripping away
I'm not letting go of hope
So just please just make it through
Death won't take you from me
We'll see it to the end
Take my hand and watch the sun rise
Open up your eyes and see me sitting here
You mean more than the world
So stay with me
Nothing can take me from you
Not god, nor fate will split us from the world
Your the light within the darker space
Hold me close to you to feel your heart
Cower to the thought
Of you being gone
Dreading to see a bitter end
Cower to the thought that you won't awake
Horror to my breaking heart
Shudder to the woe
Shudder in the dark
Woe
Witness a woe
A love that aches (won't fade)
Woes won't fade
Soaked in hope
The pain of hope

The final rays of dusk
Has graced the window pane
A twilight of a somber sight
torturing me
All hope is fading fast
I just want to be here
To hold you through the dark
To hold you through the night
Remember better times
Don't fear the fading light
The planning for a burial
Not for a grave
Just hope you were waking up
Just wish you'd stay
To hold me through the dark
To hold me through the night
Remember better times
Don't fear the fading light
I feel completely lost
Alone out in the lurch
Remember golden times
Accept a painful lie
To hold me through the dark
To hold you through the night
Remember better times
Don't fear the fading light
Don't fear the fading light

When Mourning Comes
07:14
|
|||
Our special place
Now is left alone
Retreating there
Grieving on my own
A moments passed
Forever gone
Nothing ever lasts
Turn to see
A smile comfort me
Only shadows
Cover what I see
No morning sun shines upon her hair
No future plan
I'll just disappear
A face so sweet
A kind and caring soul
But out of reach
Pulled away so far
Wide awake
Exhaustion clouds my thoughts
Whispered prayers
Though my faith is gone
Give up hope
Though its all I have
A weakened state
My strength lays inside you
Tears all fall from your absent warmth
The glow is gone
Just shade and bitter cold
No morning sun shines upon her hair
No future plan
I'll just disappear
When mourning comes
It taints all we touch
Then mourning comes, it takes all

Eternally Quiet

Farewell love
Goodbye dreams
My heart
My life
Death stronger than life
Love stronger than death
Clinging
Words said
Tears shed
All quiet
A last breath in the air
Inhale it, hold it in
Only pain left
Your casket is blessed
Stay in the dark, in the filth, in the cold
In the bleak I stay with this pain
Stay
In the bed we laid
Your impression
Is all thats left
All flowers sent to me
Flowers scattered
Placed in a vase, on your grave
Wither away
I await
Shower in dirt, in our grave
Await an end
Tied to grief
I await
