As I Close My Eyes

Alone, forlorn in silence
 Nothing left to me
 But your memory
 As I close my eyes, as my soul withers 

 The bitter taste of Deceit
 For all that's untold
 This waste of love, a wound in my heart
 The grace of your body, imaginary lost 

 The pale distance
 Devours me from within
 When shadows are no more
 And the river stops bleeding 

 The throne of my dead illusions
 My monument of pain
 Is your masterpiece
 My soul bleeds its black delusions
 In a flowing torrent of hate
 And all that you were revives 

 As I close my eyes 

 Doomed to my existence
 Joy swept away
 The mirage vanished
 Behind a darkened sky 

 Hear my cry as I've witnessed
 The fading of your memory 

 This agony inside my soul 

 As I lay myself to rest
 So I throw myself to Death
 I drown 

 As I close my eyes
