Eternal Sorrow

Endless we walk the past, to make a future, so it seems
So numb and apathetic, we search in a sea of unknown
Taken are we, to the chants of minds so ordered
Minutes past as days grow old, seconds older change the new
Come and say your hello's as the goodbyes to be the shadow around you

Dissolve into the nothingness of the toxic air around
Shattered are you like the glass of an angel torn from the heavens so high
Forgotten by all but the one who loves, hold so dearly, life too gone
Tonight we linger, shadows our bodies, a night to hold, but throw away
Given the strength, millions to say, none to thought, minds will stray

Come and be a part of all, all that was torn apart
Nothing will come, by the new now old, searching in time but never to find
Our souls wander from our bodies, so lifeless, all around so clueless
Time will take away the shield, broken and tainted, nothing of need
Given the answer you find the question, always finding whats needed first

Walk alone, with them falling ahead, nothing left but an empty path
Say you will, but never do, say you see, but never can
The path is short, yet longer than you know
All who take it, never show
All who wander off, experience what they wish

Let it be, or let it go, either shall, either below
Take his hand, or hers in yours, a love so binding
You understand, you show no sign, confusion is at your bay
Thoughtful and kind, your heart once was, the ring falls
We see them rise, their bodies fall, a cold hard grief

They haunt your memories, dreams descend, broken and shattered
No warning from the past, futures so hostile
Leaving you broken and changed, for worse or better
Torn from your mind they creep away, never to be seen once more
Let nothing give you strength, it always takes it back, taunting

A shattered frame, a memory lays broken, leave the pieces, take the sorrow
Falling into a hole so deep, dug just for you
Cozy but not enough, yet too much
Given a choice of eternal sorrow, or misery of pain for one to borrow
Neither you want, yet always need, let go by freedoms grieve

Never to look in a mirror with two, only to see one
Cold hands and shattered hearts, a thought so broken it's over done
One last time you say goodbye to the new hello
Immortal soul of misery haunts your past to come, a future to go
The one who was torn from life now haunts your future love
Never being the one you want, never being who you used to be
Now their gone, ripped from your grip, letting go, they saw you slip
Eternal sorrow for you to see, eternal sorrow for you to keep
