Shine of the stars fall across the sea The crease of the sky dances with the waves Symphony of the scarred old night , Rests so mute on the ground , in its grave Everything is covered in the ol' silver Resonating every ounce of its existence From the sky , wrath of the might shall be delivered And the withered old hands will show no resistance What have I done , to be left in this decaying land These hands maybe old and withered but they do understand , What came my way , a curse that wouldn't go away To be left just a shadow of a forgotten man , of what I am Tears taught the longing of the mellow years Hurt preached wisely but this heart could never hear Always found a reason to bury thy soul In the gravel and stones this world now bears Inside was full of scars , more , as I travelled afar I could feel nothing but my own emptiness And Taste the sweetness of nothingness , once I was empty nothing to fill my own hollowness , Just some more emptiness The man in me was lost to the ghosts Lurking in the shadows breaking under the load , Eyes searching for the shore upon a sinking old boat , losing every last ounce of hope , A wound so deep that even time can cope , lends me a rope Now, what shall my eyes search for In this darkness that have engulfed my land and sea , Winds howl , brings forth the old lore Words of the silver moon-light these withered hands couldn't reach I'll drown in my own sea of emptiness A few drops of sorrow this world could never see As my being turns to corpse and than dust , This world will finally forget me Every lie that crossed my thought Your lies , their lies , a carcass left to rot In the morgue ocean , the dead howl all silvery night With every moment , decaying in the moon-light I was born in that very cold morgue , a shallow place it tends to be My fate always temped me to the other-side , Away from the comfort of the home and into the rough seas Your lies , their lies , a carcass left to rot , Their eyes , your eyes , searching for what I have not Your lies , their lies , sent me to the rough seas Their eyes, your eyes , the world will forget me.

Shine of the stars fall across the sea The crease of the sky dances with the waves Symphony of the scarred old night , Rests so mute on the ground , in its grave Everything is covered in the ol' silver Resonating every ounce of its existence From the sky , wrath of the might shall be delivered And the withered old hands will show no resistance What have I done , to be left in this decaying land These hands maybe old and withered but they do understand , What came my way , a curse that wouldn't go away To be left just a shadow of a forgotten man , of what I am Tears taught the longing of the mellow years Hurt preached wisely but this heart could never hear Always found a reason to bury thy soul In the gravel and stones this world now bears Inside was full of scars , more , as I travelled afar I could feel nothing but my own emptiness And Taste the sweetness of nothingness , once I was empty nothing to fill my own hollowness , Just some more emptiness The man in me was lost to the ghosts Lurking in the shadows breaking under the load , Eyes searching for the shore upon a sinking old boat , losing every last ounce of hope , A wound so deep that even time can cope , lends me a rope Now, what shall my eyes search for In this darkness that have engulfed my land and sea , Winds howl , brings forth the old lore Words of the silver moon-light these withered hands couldn't reach I'll drown in my own sea of emptiness A few drops of sorrow this world could never see As my being turns to corpse and than dust , This world will finally forget me Every lie that crossed my thought Your lies , their lies , a carcass left to rot In the morgue ocean , the dead howl all silvery night With every moment , decaying in the moon-light I was born in that very cold morgue , a shallow place it tends to be My fate always temped me to the other-side , Away from the comfort of the home and into the rough seas Your lies , their lies , a carcass left to rot , Their eyes , your eyes , searching for what I have not Your lies , their lies , sent me to the rough seas Their eyes, your eyes , the world will forget me.
