Solitude - Evermore Alone lyrics

rate me

This silent evening with its moon so bright <br />

Sitting here on the path of life, everyone is gone out of sight <br />

Went through all these dark nights (alone) <br />

With the memories of the past (so dreary) <br />

All these tears I've shed <br />

My wounds will never mend <br />

Over every river I've walked <br />

And every endless field I've crossed <br />

Every drop of blood I've lost <br />

Every little wound it has cost <br />

Every word I've said <br />

And every mistake I've made <br />

Wished you could be here by my side <br />

Feel all the pain that's in my mind <br />

<br />

The tears I cried came from a shadow inside <br />

A sorrow so painful from which I can't hide <br />

<br />

This solitary life cuts through me like a knife <br />

Piercing my memories to reopen the scar <br />

And as my soul cries still do I smile <br />

This scar within built by lies so thin <br />

<br />

Shouldn't I learn from my mistakes? <br />

The tears it causes the pain it forsakes <br />

If words could be renewed and replaced <br />

Would it be a different matter with another face? <br />

<br />

Oh have I dread this perpetual sorrow <br />

This perished orchid does no longer grow <br />

My last breath before to rest I'm laid <br />

Evermore alone I seize my blade <br />

<br />

"On a dark November night silence spoke a word so mere <br />

a word fraught with lingering pain and boundless fear <br />

a message that strangled the starkest dose of hope <br />

I closed my eyes grasped my life and strained the rope"
