Requiem

I'm searching for the answers
None are written in the sky
Through all the hurt and pain of my life
All I ever felt like

I was dying for a reason
Yet the darkness left me blind
Rotting with the passing seasons
These times they uncertain us

Tyrant of the individual
Beckoned by the lepers smile
We torn our eyes to an eternal sky

My wounds were covered up by pride
Yet time always wins
I fear the emptiness
The misery haunts me
I remember holding on to anything you gave
Once again, made a liar
Twisting the knife in my heart
Your choking my breath
Defend unto me

Old man
Weak and frail
Dying under newborn skies
They'll sing your requiem
Legacy of wasted time

I remember hate in your eyes
Your choking my breath
Wounds cover my pride
Filling my emptiness
Misery haunts me
You fail me
Final Requiem

My wounds were covered up by pride
Yet time always wins
I fear the emptiness
The misery haunts me
I remember holding on to anything you gave
Once again, made a liar
Twisting the knife in my heart
Your choking my breath
Defend unto me
