Paroles de Perennial Solitude

As veils of bereavement unfold before my eyes open wide I’m looking back into my past searching for the reason why When the dawn’s first light graced my eyes tears Of sorrow fell down from the sky I rose to wash my hands in streams of ever flowing purity With sadness i reached for the heavens knowing that i will never die I yearn to bleed like all men do and lay down to never ending sleep Who am i if not a shadow, a soulless wraith in flesh disguised? Neither sun nor moon to mourn me only perennial solitude Sing for me winds of memory Sing for me winds of memory Why was i cursed thus? To exist only in the twilight of dreams What sins brought me here where despair whisper my name In the lifeless realm of endless pain As veils of bereavement unfold before my eyes open wide I’m looking back into my past searching for the reason why Who am i if not a shadow, a soulless wraith in flesh disguised? Neither sun nor moon to mourn me only perennial solitude
