After Lifeless Years

The truth became so clear to you, and so your faith has died

Now see what waits for you on the other side

A morbid sea of deepest black, a distant ever burning flame

With nowhere else to turn, we wander alone...forever alone

Forsaken by the God you loved, and now your love has died

No miracle will shine its light on you

So easily directed, your thoughts remain your only guide

Know you will see no truth beneath this cloak of lies

A distant ever piercing cry...so far away

Blinded by aspirations of a higher state

Wasting your life just searching for a periphery

Hold on to the thought, that it was just,

And pray for life to continue

We'll fall beyond safeties grasp

To re-emerge lifeless

Trying to break from the clutches of our death

A morbid sea of deepest black, a distant ever burning flames

A distant ever piercing cry, so far away
