My Skull In My Hands

The eyes
that used to guide my steps
to shed light before me
now feed my nightmares
and I
die at every dawn
As darkness fades out
all my dreams turn to dust

I realize another night is so far away...

My senses are blackened
a weak glimpse of faith is dying
my sight yields visions of spectres
that haunt my bleeding wounds
crawling shadows surround me

My ears witness one thousand screams
raising from every hell
my mind is imprisoned in flesh
while so many battles fade out
inside my heart
and I sail the sea of nothingness

Those eyes
that looked inside me
to unveil my soul
have left just deep scars
and I
walk away from you
while for the last time
our song weeps inside me

Now please, believe that my life's disease
will make you forget my memories
my name be your night black grim shadow
and let me sink alone, alone...

I used to fly with you high
in scarlet passion
now I drown alone
as dark turns to sorrow

Now I close my eyes
yearning for rest
Cold rain falls in vain
Sombre days are yet to come
gloomy fate waits for me
All that is left
just a pale remembrance
staring at my skull in my hands
