WHILE HEAVEN WEPT - To Wander The Void lyrics
rate meA million miles from everything the emptiness is everywhere<br />
The lone and level sands stretch as far as I can see<br />
Nothing but the hollowed eyes of skulls and ancient bones despair<br />
Remains of those who wandered this wasteland vast before me<br />
<br />
Fatigue and famine render every step a tribulation<br />
Beneath the blistering sun sabulous winds just a mockery<br />
Lost within an infinity of dust and desolation<br />
The vultures circling overhead await my lonely expiry<br />
<br />
Maintaining this course to nowhere I have traveled so far<br />
Far beyond the valley's carnage and death's silent repose<br />
Compelled to journey onward by the calling of the morning star<br />
Haunted by visions and voices, memories or madness providence only knows<br />
<br />
I can't remember when or how I'd first lost my way<br />
Thirsting even a tear of solace knowing naught will ever come<br />
Siren celestial have mercy on me allow my flesh into dust decay<br />
And carry my soul far beyond this damned and forsaken kingdom<br />
<br />
I fell to my knees as the last trace of strength slowly faded away<br />
With stone in throat I knew I'd never reach the hallowed and promised land<br />
I conceded my carcass a vulture's feast, my soul eternal umbrae<br />
Once a king, now nameless, forgotten, swallowed by the seas of sand
