A Final Lament

A final lament and you'll be gone

From my mind and soul

Banished to an eternity of silence

Echoing from all the walls

The most sacred of chambers

The last trace of you

Screaming at me, clawing and fighting

But my scarred flesh will hold

Numbered from all the pain

My walls, they will hold

This time no rose petal ground

For you to tread upon

This time no rose petal sheets

Cover my bed

This time no tears to drown the

Pain that burns your heart

This time it's you who yearns

You're alone

Can't you see that I'm your shadow?

I will never let you go

You are mine and you will follow

Fading are the days of old

Make me bleed; I'll make you suffer

Don't you think that I will fold

Your time will come as mine has now

You my shame, I'll take the pain

Your fear, your scars, I can heal them

All that you are I forgive

Your path will be mine, start walking

Their backs are turned, I'm all there is

I'm the silence that surrounds us

Seeping through our heart that burns

Don't look back, I'm right behind you

A song with no end, heat the hum

Scream... but no one will hear you

It dies inside your soul, you'll fall
