Lyrics
(Verse 1)
The clock ticks slow, a funeral march, each second a heavy beat
The world outside is bathed in sun, but here, in the shadows, I retreat
The scent of lilies, a bitter perfume, a shroud of white and grey
A final goodbye, a whispered name, that fades with each passing day.
(Chorus)
Death, a cold embrace, a darkness that never ends
It whispers promises of peace, but steals away our friends
Leaving behind a hollow ache, a silence loud and deep
The weight of loss, a heavy stone, that only tears can keep.
(Verse 2)
Their laughter echoes in my mind, a phantom in the hall
A memory of warmth and light, now trapped in a fading thrall
The empty chair, the silent room, a canvas painted with grief
Every corner filled with ghosts, of promises, of fleeting belief.
(Chorus)
Death, a cold embrace, a darkness that never ends
It whispers promises of peace, but steals away our friends
Leaving behind a hollow ache, a silence loud and deep
The weight of loss, a heavy stone, that only tears can keep.
(Bridge)
The sun sets low, a final sigh, a promise of a new dawn
But the darkness lingers, a constant reminder, that someone is gone
Their absence a gaping hole, in the fabric of my soul
A wound that never heals, a story left untold.
(Chorus)
Death, a cold embrace, a darkness that never ends
It whispers promises of peace, but steals away our friends
Leaving behind a hollow ache, a silence loud and deep
The weight of loss, a heavy stone, that only tears can keep.
(Outro)
So I'll carry on, with a heart of stone, forever marked by their demise
A shadow of the person I was, with tears that never dry.
