Forever Night
Days passing on by
Nights sometimes I try
Finding the answers to the why
Seeking to find
Some piece of mind
Keep looking over here
Over there
Eventually, that is where I'm bound
Under the ground
Can't change
Nor rearrange
Always stays the same
Whosoever be to blame
Can't find Peace
No release
Forever in the dark
Can't find the park
What a lark
Night forever remains
Echoes in these chains
All parts that are the stains
Forever is the night
It's endless flight
The future that I see
Hearts no longer free
Hunger that can't be fulfilled
Your water is naturally distilled
All gets you killed
Wanking
Cranking
Man kind the living zombie, hiding in the night
Hiding from the light.
Taken without a fight
Lost is the light
The river of lost souls
Forever it flows
past my door
Wanting ....ever more...
City of enternal desire
Caused this fire
Forever it burns higher
Taking all
On a Tumbling fall
Never to end
The souls it does bend
To hell it will send
..Never to mend..
Used to be a part
A shattered heart
Mended
Winded
But not the same
Lost part of my brain
A dove
Unable to love
always the dirty white glove
Search you will find
Things that remind
Things better off left behind
Life....... there lies the stain
Getting it rubbed against the grain
Waiting
Waiting
No hate
Stepping beyond that simple fate
Empty of tomorrows
Of all the sorrows
Burned out desires
No spark of the fire
Embers has faded
Degraded
Burned away
.....Nothing left to say....
