The Tomb
A dark and empty place is this
Silent beyond compare
A cold and lonely prison
With nothing but despair
A purgatory without all reason
Forever to be enslaved
A graveyard for the living
A hopeless and hollow grave
A place where time stands still
An occupied but empty room
From the time you said goodbye
My heart became this tomb
