The Lament Lyrics

Flies fall from the heavens
into the cobwebs clutching emptiness
silence was whispered in my ear
wings flutter noiselessly, caressing the fear
as one breaks, another lives on, trapped in eternal requiem
take a glance now, and you'll see how, there's emptiness within

what was lost is now mine again
leaving you with only shattered thoughts
of days long gone and withered hope
lament again, you'll suffer me

as one breaks, another lives on, trapped in eternal requiem
take a glance now, and you'll see how, there's emptiness within
whatever i stumble upon can't be in vain
forever falling in your suffocating void
the choirs reach the point of ecstasy
and nothing came, forsaken to the world
to the world

and one more wound splits wide
revealing one more naked eye
this body is nothing but flesh
but of ruin, it's all that remains
the path is aflame
listen to the sombre lament
my soul was all that remains
walk alone in oblivion

as one breaks, another lives on, trapped in eternal requiem
take a glance now, and you'll see how, there's emptiness within
