lyrics

The coffin lies adjacent to the alter
The petals line the boards
Leaning over top the dark sepulcher
His mouth goes dry
His eyes are swollen, ears are ringing
Heart in vices, suffocating
"Prove to me your grace, oh God, and
Fix this bed for two
I'm dead without you"

Long after sunset
Still tracing her name
The date freshly carved into stone
So cold and unfeeling
Eyes on the ground as he echoes
"Oh God, this is all too soon
My God, this is all too soon"

"Where is solace in this?
Must not sleep come?
Dare I follow, lover?
Reaching out for..."

"I can't quite shake this feeling of the end"
What will it take?
"Her eyes closed"
Who can relate?
"She left me"
Before it's too late

"Fall back on all the promises and vows we made
I swear she holds them still"
What of the rest?
"Remember"
What else is left?
"Forever"
This is a test

"Never thought that sleep would be so welcome here
Bite my lip and close my eyes
Will I dream?
And will you lead me?
Or will I walk alone?
How long will I be waiting?"
