Forgotten Past

Alone… the shadows they have come
To sing the dead man's hymn
For every dawn I die
‘til my last dusk has come.

My image washed away
On a sunless misty dawn
Forced to walk the paths
Of my forgotten past.

The night has taken over
But still I do not sleep
In my blackened mind
I'm travelling so deep.

Alone… the shadows they have come
To sing the dead man's hymn
For every dawn I die
‘til my last dusk has come.

My brain it has no answer
For what I shall have done
These shadows are an artefact
For revenge that's still to come.

I wait for day in peaceful sleep
When I shall wake to die
In death there lies salvation
Now I can't even cry.

Words of hate surround
Icy winds on hallowed ground
Shades hate
Why.

Alone the shadows they have come
To sing the dead man's hymn
For every dawn I die
‘til my last dusk has come.
