Body's Betrayal

All that was will soon be gone
Body's betrayal
All pride will now subside
Lost strength imprisoned the mind.

Somewhere, a faint sound in the distance
A far cry, shadows of a past long gone
Once we were loved, we were so strong
Always gaining, never failing
Our time went by in the blink of an eye.

Why has god forsaken me
And left my soul in this lifeless body
Don't look around, just move along
Won't hold you back
You're better off alone.

Your face, soft embrace
I must forget you, I can't hold onto
Your hands, it's the end
Won't pull you under, and all I wonder is.

Why, why, why, why me?
Stop the course of this demise
Why, why, why, why me?
Wish upon these darkened skies.

I'm your fading strength, your dying pride
Leaving nothing but an empty shell behind
Where I was, now a black void
Everything you once were, erased and destroyed.

I'm the sickness in your mind, eating your from the inside
Growing slowly, gaining ground... driving every goodwill out
You won't notice I am here... I hide in your pain, you r fear
Poison coursing through your veins... slowly driving you insane.

God, give me back my strength
Don't let me fade away in this hell
See my muscles slowly die
My whole future has been denied.

Is there a reason for this painful ending
I never knew death would be so demanding
I cannot understand that fate has chosen me
So let the end come swift, please god just set me free.

Don't look around, just move along, without me.
