THE LAST STAND

Shadows encapsulate my soul

Seasons pass and tear drops fall

To the sins I lived to made

To the blades, pushed, pours the scarlet red

Looking back at the days of glory

Here's the day to make me pay

Penance I seek in this hour and I'm ready

For the scythe of the reaper to take my last gasp away

                                                      

If I pray would the light not fail me?

Would the wings come save me?

But the time is nearing for my ending

I asked once more does life have meaning?

                                                      

And as I fall my last sight to see

What does the other side hold for me. . .
