As I Wither

I wither like an oak with dead roots
Leaves falling of
Never to return. There is no spring in sight
As I seek suppression and grace, I'm falling down again.

Left behind! Rage descended from bitterness
Still the old bonds hold me. My feet stuck in the anger.

Years filled with sorrow and pain. Has hardened my heart
Tearing my soul in pieces. My life slowly fades away.

I wither like an oak with dead roots
Leaves falling of
Never to return. There is no spring in sight
As I seek suppression and grace, I'm falling down again…

Falling...

As I grasp for the utter palm. All that is left is misery
Dragging me down. Only to feel despair again.

I wither like an oak with dead roots
Leaves falling of…
Never to return. There is no spring in sight
As I seek suppression and grace, I'm falling down again…

Feel the rain as it floats on by
Rain washing clean all the sins
Feel the smell of morning
Before you putrefy and decay.

Vanish the absence of emptiness!
Glorify life and release
Perish the syndrome that haunts me!
Before it drags me away…

Falling down again…

On my way into the shadows. Still the air is calm
No longer keeping me searching. As my life fades away…

I wither like an oak with dead roots
Leaves falling of
Never to return. There is no spring in sight
As I seek suppression and grace, I am falling down again…
