Soulless Lament

Dragging me through these shadowed plains
Disillusioned whispers dig at me
It bellows my name, begging me to surrender to flames
And every breath tastes like decay

The truth will come when I'm undone
Perhaps in death, I'll find the proof I seek

Promised light in this gloom, all I feel is emptiness
Where is the proof there's more to this?
Show me proof
A hollow echo reverberates fractured truth
Every breath tastes like decay
Every dawn turns to grey

I've walked through fire and crawled through ash
Still, the darkness clings
I'm waiting for death to show my worth
Will I see the beauty when I fall?

Drag me from this abyssal despair
Pull me close
Feel a hollow soul break apart
Will you mend the shards of my dying heart?

If there's beauty, why can't I see?
Is it locked behind death's gate?
Is there no purpose at all?

Cursed to live in a place of misery
Shivering endlessly
Cursed to wander
This fragile shell is breaking apart

Oh, saving grace, where do you hide?
I'm on the edge of the fire
It bellows my name, begging me to surrender to the flame
I beg you to save me
Wrap me in chains just to keep me alive

I choke on shards of this shattered light
Torn between the end and present
Blackened skies are painted for me
Cursed to wander endlessly
Through my own self destruction

Don't let me give in, don't let me die
Seeking for meaning as I suffocate in personal hell
Save me
Will this just consume what is left of me
Leaving me decayed

Drag me from this abyssal despair
Pull me close
Feel a hollow soul break apart
Will you mend the shards of my dying heart?

If you are an angel, embrace my flesh
Wrap me in sheltering garbs
Please speak my name
Tell me I'll be okay

The void is calling
Please, don't let me give in
Trembling alone in darkness
Save me
Drag me out
Don't leave me to die alone
Drag me from abyssal despair
In this moment you will feel a hollow soul break
Save me from my soulless lament
