The Endless Grey

A dying light, a shining mind
All that I can hope to be to keep you
Safe here, close to me, your knowledge to be mine
The mystic cure that I must find
Now my fear grows stronger with the night
I'm lost and searching for the light
To hold back the endless grey

A gleam of hope, a chance to win
In distant lands of melting snow to heal you
The life I must take from the beating heart of death
To renew your fading breath
Now the dark surrenders to the day
And I hope that help is on the way

Breathe slowly, if this breath may be your last
Surrender your ambitions to the past
Rest easy as you drift into the endless grey
Forgive me as I watch you slip away

A desperate race, a dash for life
Though I run, am I too late to save you?
You're here, but still I fear the cold will take you soon
A final hope to heal your wounds
And the Sun, it sinks into the night
Behold a phial of purest white

Breathe slowly, if this breath may be your last
Surrender your ambitions to the past
Rest easy as you drift into the endless grey
Forgive me as I watch you slip away

Forgive me as I watch you slip away
Forgive me as I watch you slip away
Rest easy, drifting through the endless grey
Forgive me
I watch you slip away
Drifting through the endless grey
