Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
Rendered lame Through decades of slumber Decaying to filth In darkness I lumber Wretched light In hopeless abandon Thrown to the depths The soul of a phantom Piercing the skin with a blade Just to see if this heart still beats Pressed to the wrist once again And sing a bittersweet melody No one leaves this world unscarred For we are tethered to the stars Torn and scattered in the wake Of crises that have left us marred Buried in apathy A ghost in a cage Stripped of all feeling But sadness and rage Grave is the answer The end of all trials Turning the pages Of a life in exile Tighten the rope on the neck A swift kick to the chair Could wash away my regrets And it's not like I care when No one leaves this world alive For we are bound by earthly ties To brew and toil on this soil Scraped and cut by spades and knives Prisoner in this oaken chamber, lacquered in varnish and ebony teintures Ivory linings adorn my tomb from which the roses lie and bloom Turned to dust a hollowing shell, under the court of iron bells Lying beneath a lonely grave, to suffer the fate of one depraved When the weight of a million dreams comes crashing down on you And you start to feel as though you've been misled Then you'll know the time has come for you to go The light shines at the end of the tunnel, but you would rather be dead Nothing remains but memories to family friends and enemies But they as well are perishable, so why delay the inevitable Ashes to ashes so they say, and all my ills are blown away Far too late for apology with all the sorrow that follows me When the weight of a million dreams comes crashing down on you And you start to feel as though you've been misled Then you'll know the time has come for you to go The light shines at the end of the tunnel, but you would rather be dead Banished have I been from this world Sent beyond the grave to find my peace Three steps taken forth, beyond the gates Begging for this empty life to cease Behold a sordid grief that swallows all Bereft of light I scream out to the skies Take me now across the shining veil Beneath the moon I walk this path to die
