Beneath the earth in tomb I lay trapped in night. I hear the voices speaking yet cannot reply. They mourn my death yet no not my living hell. As I struggle to scream no words can I release. I hear the words dust to dust yet I am alive. I here the coffin begin its final journey into its bed of earth. And as I am erased from memory I am slowley buired alive. No one to hear. Unable to move I am but trapped within a shell and burried within this cacoon of sering heat. The air growing thin every breath burns my lungs. Why can I not speak why must I suffer? I strain but no words do escape my throat. In darkness I lay waitting wishing to slip into a final rest to escape my burning torment. Strangled slowley in the devils arms. Death a promise yet a far off nightmare from this hell in which I exist. Blind in life and bound in death. A tear escapes my eye leaving a trail down my cheek. The last water i shall know of heat and salt. My last vision of darkness and the emptyness from which there is no escape. I pray to at last embrace the words. And understand the true meaning of. Goodbye!

In Death I Am Awake
Beneath the earth in tomb I lay trapped in night. I hear the voices speaking yet cannot reply. They mourn my death yet no not my living hell. As I struggle to scream no words can I release. I hear the words dust to dust yet I am alive. I here the coffin begin its final journey into its bed of earth. And as I am erased from memory I am slowley buired alive. No one to hear. Unable to move I am but trapped within a shell and burried within this cacoon of sering heat. The air growing thin every breath burns my lungs. Why can I not speak why must I suffer? I strain but no words do escape my throat. In darkness I lay waitting wishing to slip into a final rest to escape my burning torment. Strangled slowley in the devils arms. Death a promise yet a far off nightmare from this hell in which I exist. Blind in life and bound in death. A tear escapes my eye leaving a trail down my cheek. The last water i shall know of heat and salt. My last vision of darkness and the emptyness from which there is no escape. I pray to at last embrace the words. And understand the true meaning of. Goodbye!
