Mourning (The End)

from Melancholia by Abandoned by Light

/

lyrics

Solace has departed once more
Embraced by the cold arms of grief
Her smile painted with silver brushes
Forged of frozen crystal funereal tears
Of those left behind in February snows

Life is killing him once again, sinking deeper
Dreams become nightmares filling the void
Utterances of forgotten prayers long dead
Memories of misplaced smiles since drowned
In the tears and rain that fell from the sky

As the sun lowers to mourn the end
And night rises, draining misleading sunsets
Closing your eyes to see the darkening light
As the dawning moon reflects on the grave
Where your disease and trauma still fester

As the flesh becomes lost and disposed
The soul no longer lingering in wooden prison
The pain returned unto the abusing world
Leaving only memories to rot in open wounds
Cancerously growing to claim remaining lights

Malignant prophecies of human suffering
Irrelevant and sad lives become mere shadow
Inner sanctuary, hiding from dawning realities
Are torn down, raped once more of meaning
Mourning the end of another forgotten soul

Weeping for nothing, and for no-one
Last thoughts leave, drift from the world
Becoming dwindling starts, fading to apathy
As obsidian pupils observe the passing aeons
And the voices of the wind become whispers

Malignant prophecies of human suffering
Irrelevant identities become mere shadow
Inner sanctuary, hiding from the abuses
Is torn down, raped of all its meaning
And its end is shown in shattered memory
