Sinking in a sea of emptiness, alone  A solitude, an isolation, to living men unknown  Shadows of memories dance across my mind  Just beyond reach with the passing of time  Searching with blinded eyes  For a truth that once was  Feeling so alive  My mortality I deny  Shadows of memories  Dance across my mind  Now totally lost to the ghost of rememberance  No tears can I cry to quench the thirst of suffering  Looking on life as the altar with a saddened familarity  Only now in madness can I see the simplicity  Silence of loneliness roars in my ears  My own heartbeat rhythm I've grown to fear  Seven times eternity I'm sentenced this living death  Grief and agony multiply with each and every breath  Blackness of space, vast spave of time  To richness of life, my heart now blind  Memories of the past now torture my mind  Suffering for eternity no rest in dying  On stone ears fall my cries  Shadows of memories dance across my mind  Now barely able to bring me to another time  A time taken as something owed  Looking back I wish I'd chosen a different road  Now totally lost to the ghost of rememeberance  No tears can I cry to quench the thirst of suffering  Each pain-filled moment alone another black  Cross to bear  Silence of loneliness roars in my ears  On stone ears fall my cries
