Wake in Mourning - Woe

I carry the weight of unyielding loss

A future perplexed and I fear its true cost

Blacken the depths of the heart

Wake in mourning, surpass the most unspeakable odds

Decisive its menace, I sink and depart

Black the depths of the heart

I can’t inhale, no strength exists

To rise and continue as this anguish persists

Another sacrifice to some rancid god of time

No footnote to write in the great book of life

Cold barbed wires, the poisoned hand of time

The sun slowly opens its funeral eye

Tired expression to soothe all the lies

A patient reminder of all that must die

I carry the weight of unyielding loss

Behind me, the night and all promising thoughts

Blacken the depths of the heart

No door, no key, no great escape

We live in search of freedom but are only guaranteed pain

I carry the weight of unyielding loss

A future perplexed and I fear its true cost

Blackened the depths of the heart
