In The Veil Of Grief!

Feeding on the darkness that my soul can't flee
Bones spinning, faith dissolving like mist in the sea
My heart shatters as my soul dissolves in pain
And my consciousness fades like echoes in the rain

Rest my creed in loneliness' hollowed space
Without plea, let my heart break and shatter in time
If salvation won't save me, let my life unravel slow
And through callous decree, I shall forever bow and fall, lost

Harsh, endless nights, my sleep is a distant dream
I'm drawn to the void where darkness gathers and gleams
My sketches falter, lines blur, and darkness seeps
My demise is ripe, my breath is fading, a final sigh.
