lyrics

as time went by, so did we
sympathy stayed my hand, but forgiveness is beyond us
nothing was spared but your absence,
hopes burning within.
and a mockery of attempts

do we deserve the time?

lose myself within,
echoes of what we once were.
a chance at salvation, hope for a new beginning.

our faith is blackened sludge,
pumping through our veins,
clouding these thoughts, and guiding my voice.

there once was meaning
to our unholy conviction.
now, the beliefs are a prison
purposed to raze
beneath the salvation of my thoughts,
this pile of embers
and a wasteland of free will.
encasing my body,
rotting away my soul,
breaking my spirit with undying hate, malicious thoughts.

turning my body into a tomb.
moments and hours fade to dust
turning my body into a tomb.
hours fade into years fade into decades
slowly, my body becomes a tomb
