Evermore Alone

This silent evening with its moon so bright

Sitting here on the path of life, everyone is gone out of sight

Went through all these dark nights (alone)

With the memories of the past (so dreary)

All these tears I've shed

My wounds will never mend

Over every river I've walked

And every endless field I've crossed

Every drop of blood I've lost

Every little wound it has cost

Every word I've said

And every mistake I've made

Wished you could be here by my side

Feel all the pain that's in my mind

The tears I cried came from a shadow inside

A sorrow so painful from which I can't hide

This solitary life cuts through me like a knife

Piercing my memories to reopen the scar

And as my soul cries still do I smile

This scar within built by lies so thin

Shouldn't I learn from my mistakes?

The tears it causes the pain it forsakes

If words could be renewed and replaced

Would it be a different matter with another face?

Oh have I dread this perpetual sorrow

This perished orchid does no longer grow

My last breath before to rest I'm laid

Evermore alone I seize my blade

"On a dark November night silence spoke a word so mere

a word fraught with lingering pain and boundless fear

a message that strangled the starkest dose of hope

I closed my eyes grasped my life and strained the rope"
