Echoes of sorrow

You'd take my life from me
You show no empathy
This shroud concealing what you'll never see
The poisoned truth has been unveiled
You asseverate in broken words that's so hard to hear
Emphatic rejection
I'll remain arcane

This mask of apathy
The scars beneath
Reveal the echo of this solitary slave
This unrequited desire
Lies in a void of sorrow
Asphyxiated from my yearning to embrace

You'd take my life from me
You show no empathy
This shroud concealing what you'll never see
The poisoned truth has been unveiled
You asseverate in broken words that's so hard to hear
Emphatic rejection
I'll remain arcane

Your touch would sanctify
My forbidden lust
Consumed and unrelenting
A tomb of passion's fear
This weakened fool I've become
I long to taste
Rejuvenate the memory of the life you took away

You'd take my life from me
You show no empathy
This shroud concealing what you'll never see
The poisoned truth has been unveiled
You asseverate in broken words that's so hard to hear
Emphatic rejection
I'll remain arcane

Leave me alone
You'll never be the one
Live with the deprivation
You're not my aspiration
Won't let you ascertain
Don't darken my door again
Leave me alone
You'll never be the one

You'd take my life from me
You show no empathy
This shroud concealing what you'll never see
The poisoned truth has been unveiled
You asseverate in broken words that's so hard to hear
Emphatic rejection
I'll remain arcane
