Embraced by Shrouds

Scream - and you will see
The feeling of pain
As you wander
By dark paths
Through the woods of twilight

Alone - alone
Always alone
Never lonely
Always by myself

Feeling the freezing breath
On the back of my neck
Rushing of my blood
Through pounding veins
The stench of rot and decay
Smells deep in my mind
Scratching in the stumps of hatred
Taste of mould and clotted blood

Eyes wide open
Turn and look
Never alone - never lonely
Taking cuts - in the mouth of hatred
Wide open - in the middle of the scream

Alone - alone
Always alone
Never lonely
Always by myself
