ELYSIUM

 

Elysium; I never thought I could be so alone.
Here I am with a heart of stone.
Petrified that my eyes will be bereft of your beauty.
Damned to mourn throughout eternity.
I stood at the grave, weeping my good-byes
But in that moment, it was me that died.
Elysium; I never thought I could be so alone.
Here I am with a heart of stone.
Sinking into the depth of dark sorrow.
Pity has replaced my bone marrow.
I feel everything but my mourn depleting.
Everyday is just yesterday repeating.
Elysium; I never thought I could be so alone.
Here I am with a heart of stone.
Shattering the windows to my dreams
While my life frays at the seams.
Heaven won't save me and Hell just don't care.
So I breathe pain like it is air.
Elysium; I never thought I could be so alone.
Here I am with a heart of stone.
