Vacant

Clawing my way through the impossible darkness of this place
The alluring shadows they beckon to me
The spiraling madness envelopes my consciousness, as I fight to stay awake
What atrocity has deserved me this fate?

Drowning in waves of decay
Suffer through this mortal plague
A nightmare upon us has taken the stage
A twisted amalgamation of death, despair and suffering

Solace I find in you, at the end of this masquerade
Silence the only truth, as this world fades away

Free from this mask I wear
Burdened no more by fear
Dawning the exit of light

Ethereal become
Witness oblivion
Welcome the embrace of night

In my comfort lies the sorrows of mortality
Fleeting moments mark the bane of this reality
Crumbling towers shake the frail walls that keep us inside from the promise of forever
Forever inside

As I look back at a moment of anarchy
And converge into the river of eternity
At last, I may know peace
