The echo of time is merciless Gone in the blink of an eye Moments fade away Born to die alone Was there ever a meaning? Is this the end? Death is just the beginning An endless nightmare from which we can not awake Forced to live inside a dream that we can not escape While death surrounds us Taunting us Õtil the end Traveling through the lows and highs The last journey now begins I can feel no hope for our final days I can feel no purpose Meaningless endeavors will fade

Receding form the light Shrinking in the darkness A cold found only in a dream In this space of time Cosmic wonders will ßy by Racing so faithful from the dark Recollection of my death soon fades with the waning moon Gleaming splendors across the darkling plain Give twilight to all that remains This place of neglected souls Is now altar for the waning moon Out of her chamber Pallid and ghastly Shining forever in her solitude Gazing eternal Plagued with wonderment I've pledged allegiance to the waning moon

And here I lay forever facing above There's no more pain and no more pleasure to give Beneath the surface I have found peace Resting eternal decaying with ease Leaving behind what I thought was precious to me I gave in With grief and sorrow the tears soon follow I lay with comfort and close my eyes Never awaken No breath to take in This life's forsaken Resolved In Earth A being thrust into life without a choice Existing to challenge the masses and their false god I have denied all servitude Denied a faith that's empty and crude The path to freedom has found me I beckon its call I gave in With grief and sorrow the tears soon follow I lay with comfort and close my eyes Never awaken No breath to take in This life's forsaken Resolved In Earth You'll never see my face again Embrace and shed your tears The storm of life rages on A flat circle in time Close the casket
4.
There was a time when your embrace was all I ever wanted I can't come to terms with your existence If I could only turn back to a time before I knew you A time when life was naught When I heard your name the count down began Now I must try and regain what was lost If I could only turn back to a time before I knew you A time when life was naught I refuse to open this blackened heart ever again If I could only turn back to a time before I knew you A time when life was staging to rot from within

Hiraeth 06:00
Transformed from star dust Trapped in a shell of mortal flesh Existence is nothing but agony and strife I long for a refuge I can't attain in life To return is to die and leave it all behind Snared in a vessel that's destined to disintegrate A beautiful death Iove waited to die The day has come for my return To the stars of Hiraeth and the void I have become A timeless existence where life is now displaced I am at one with the lawlessness of space A space that has given birth to muck A cosmos that's godless form darkness it burst
