Paroles de Rhymes Of Man

Rayless, and pathless, and the icy earth Swung blind and blackening in the moonless air Morn came and went and came, and brought me no day And men forgot their passions in the dread Of their desolation To free the hollow heart from paining They stood aloof, the scars remaining Like cliffs which had been rent asunder But neither heat nor frost nor thunder And life is thorny, and youth is vain Work like madness in the brain And if forever, even though, never Silence of that dreamless sleep I envy now too much to weep For deliverance for the pride once I had God, I pleased you, but everything has just turned to sand Hear that the voices begging inside of my head God forgive me if true faith doesn't lie within my heart Shivering scrap'd with their cold skeleton hands The feeble ashes, and their feeble breath Blew for a little life Mad disquietude on the dull sky The pall of a past world, and then again With curses cast them down Upon the dust To free the hollow heart from paining They stood aloof, the scars remaining Like cliffs which had been rent asunder But neither heat nor frost nor thunder And life is thorny, and youth is vain Work like madness in the brain And if for ever, even though, never Silence of that dreamless sleep I envy now too much to weep For deliverance for the pride once I had God I pleased you but everything has just turned to sand Hear that the voices begging inside of my head God forgive me if true faith doesn't lie within my heart As aught of mortal birth, too soon return'd to earth! So I behold them not: Like common earth can rot Must fall the earliest prey, the leaves must drop away Though thou hast left me free than thus remember thee The love where death has set his seal, nor age can chill, nor rival steal To see thy beauties fade, had worn a deeper shade For deliverance for the pride once I had God, I pleased you, but everything has turned to sand Hear that the voices begging inside of my head God forgive me if true faith doesn't lie within my heart
