As the Light Fades

Abandon me

 As the light fades

 All that remains is regret

 I'm sorry I wasn't there

 That I've caused all this misery

 The lives

 I've left behind

 Will they look back

 With pride or pain?

 If I had but another day

 Could I right my mistakes?

 As the sun sets

 Do they still love me?

 Go in peace

 I'll scream this loud so you can hear me

 I forgive you

 I still love you

 Soon you'll be a memory

 Clinging

 To our memories

 Sinking

 Cavernous feeling

 We watched you fade

 Gaze helplessly upon your deathbed

 We watched you fade

 Away from this life

 Away from the pain

 Go in peace

 I'll scream this loud so you can hear me

 I forgive you

 I still love you

 Now you're just a memory

 Go in peace

 As the light fades

 All that remains is your memory

 I'll keep you close to me
