Lyrics
(Verse 1)
The world spins on a dusty track, seasons turn and leaves fall down
Faces flicker, fade to black, whispers carried on a mournful sound
A child I held, with hair of gold, now a memory etched in stone
This ageless heart, forever cold, a prisoner I am, forever alone
(Chorus)
Forever, a word that cuts like ice, a curse disguised as a gilded chain
To watch the fire fade from your eyes, as life surrenders, love in vain
The weight of centuries, a crushing load, a burden carried on this endless road
(Verse 2)
Once, I dreamt of love's embrace, a hand to hold in the fading light
But forever etched upon my face, is the solitude of endless night
I've seen empires rise and fall, witnessed battles fought and won
But through it all, I stand so tall, a monument to the setting sun
(Chorus)
Forever, a word that cuts like ice, a curse disguised as a gilded chain
To watch the fire fade from your eyes, as life surrenders, love in vain
The weight of centuries, a crushing load, a burden carried on this endless road
(Bridge)
Is there a purpose to this plight? A meaning whispered on the wind?
Or am I doomed to wander through the night, a ghost without, a hollow within?
(Chorus)
Forever, a word that cuts like ice, a curse disguised as a gild
gilded chain
To watch the fire fade from your eyes, as life surrenders, love in vain
The weight of centuries, a crushing load, a burden carried on this endless road
(Outro)
But maybe someday, in the distant haze, this curse will finally break its hold
And in the warmth of a lover's gaze, this heart of stone will finally unfold
Until then, I walk this lonely path, a solitary soul, adrift in time's wrath
