Lullaby for the Dead Lyrics

Where have you been?

It has been far too long

Not just a friend

But someone I called my own

Not just a fire

A flame that burns eternal

The glass turns opaque

As all my demons fade

Brightened

His eyes are glowing

Angered

His desires are growing

Solaced

For now, he's brooding

Reborn

His heart forever beats again

Running

I'm running out of time

Seeking

Comfort I can't find

So cold and hungry for a taste

A taste of anything pure

A blanket of embers surrounds me

And I'm reborn again

Where I have been?

Lost within this darkness

I have regained my spirit

Now the machine activates

Flooded with light

My mind still can't fathom

All the disease

And torment I've avoided

By choosing you

The reaper has been evaded

A journey with

A guiding hand to soothe me

Tortured

Now his teeth are grinding

Rising

The demon shouts for war

Planning

To make this world a graveyard

Reborn

Our hearts forever beat again

Awakening, I've fallen asleep from the world

I stand melting, I'm bleeding for what I know

No more emptiness, I've been a glutton to my own needs

I've been buried too long, and now I am free

What have I done?

I swore I'd never kill again

What will I do?

What if the next life I take is my own?

Silence becomes habit

While time is on fire

A wick with no end

That forever burns

I've been welcomed

By this necro-society

Together we embrace silence

As we wait for our death

What happens when you die?

Ask me, and I will show you

What happens when you die?

Ask me, because I'm dead inside
