Dying of loneliness
I feel so alone
What once was gold has turned to stone
My soul once light has dimmed
It dances with the night's twilight.
Lay my body down at midnight
The treacherous path intertwines with thorns.
The shadows overhead seemingly cut me in half
My body is no longer my own
Tears of blackest ash fall from my hands
I've been torn and tossed, defiled…
Lay my body down at midnight
The treacherous path intertwines with thorns.
My eyes no longer register what once was beautiful
The crimson lake beckons me to its depths
The blades are stroking my skin
Softly, gently calling my name.
Lay my body down at midnight
The treacherous path intertwines with thorns.
The clocks hands move decisively
Tearing my flesh from bones
Forcing the air from my lungs
My hand reaches slowly…
Lay my body down at midnight
The treacherous path intertwines with thorns.
Frozen
Lay my body down at midnight
The treacherous path intertwines with thorns.
At last…
Lay my body down at midnight
The treacherous path intertwines with thorns.
I'm bathed by moonlight
