about

Death is inevitable. Embrace it.

lyrics

I walk this darkened path
Trying to find my way home
I'm lost in blackened haze
Facing the unknown
Where do I go from here?
How do I fight?
consumed by reality
No solace in sight

I give my life
to the silence in the night
I bury it all
six feet under, out of sight
Throw it away
And let me stay
In this embracing shade...
Ah...Ah...

I stand in this meadow
A fork in the road
No signs to point the way
So here, I will stay
Where do I go from here?
Where can I hide?
with nothing to guide
The way back home..

I give my life
to the silence in the night
I bury it all
six feet under, out of sight
Throw it away
And let me stay
In the embracing shade...
Ah...Ah...

The shade of the gallows
Is casting its shadows
on my face
Upon this grave
carved in stone
The story of a ghost
All that remains
of this tortured fate.

Bring me to life
In the silence, I'll revive
Undead, but renewed
I'll neander toward the light
It's a new day
And now I'm away
From the memory of shade

Here, it still lingers
the smoldering gloom
The gallows still swinging
Now alone, now exhumed
