Isolation

Tormenting silence

The endless days bleed into

Nights where I begin to fade away

Burdened by failure, cannot remember

Why we hide within this fractured veil

Born of death, hiding just beneath the flesh

Desolate, this heart yearns for a reprieve

How could I pray for salvation?

When I'm the only mourner left to grieve

Baptized in shadows

Cleaned by the pain I bury

Betrayed, pretending I'm alive

Born of death, hiding just beneath the flesh

Desolate, this heart yearns for a reprieve

How could I pray for salvation?

When I'm the only mourner left to grieve

There he was laid to rest

I'm dreaming of your call that will never come

Holding on by a thread
