Seeking to live forever i left my body behind
But it was only pain what i’ve found
I’m doomed to stay here to die now i'm just a ghost inside
Salt my wounds, salt my grave, throw my bones into the blaze
Bury me to the land of dreams, bury my heart and the epitaph
Will read 'remember me for i have lived,
Loved and believed'
As greasy worms slither my skin,
Instead of the red velvet’s caress
Biting through the rotten wood this coffin was made of
You are the angels who cover my grave with grace
Your tears fall beneath and turn to ice
In the night of mourning
As they reach death's door knock, knock, knock
Who’s there?
But it won't be open anymore
My breath scratching the surface of this black night
Screaming into your ears to never forget that
I once was full of life
Remember me for i have lived, loved and believed
Guarding the last parts of my own
