As I wander through eternity
As I walk through the endless tears
I take one moment to shed light on my soul
One moment of peace, I take threshold
Stripped of my joy
Thrown into the void
The deep and flowing emotions
Run freely, I cannot trap them
All of my happiness, has been torn away
My grim reminders, of minds decay
A cryptic writing appears in my mind
Burned forever, ‘till the end of time
The only thing left for my wandering head
The only thing left, is my sorrow, I dread
Withering slowly, my thoughts still deter
The only possession I own is despair
Dead is my life
So dead are my thoughts
My blood flows still
But my battle’s been fought
I live through the storm,
I die each day
I’m no longer warm
My sanity’s decayed
Abyss of the crimson hellhounds await
Destined to misery, destined to fate
My soul is a tyrant, seeking the end
I die, once more, as the cycle begins
False happiness is easy to find if you try
A false tissue to wipe the tears I cry
Lo and behold, I stand in the rain
Raindrops of crimson, from clouds of pain
Secluded again, from all of my joy
Solemn sorrows, a grave envoy
Into the blackness I plunge so alone
Destined to wander, destined to roam
My last possession, my last lament
My pain flows deeply, the pain I resent
Parchment of pain, I hold in my hand
A quill of hope, I write one demand
And words on the paper do calm my fears
The promise I read, quells a few tears
I sign away my soul with haste
Now my last possession is faith
This is the end of everything
This is the end of nothing
This is the end of my road
This is the path I chose
Zealous rebellion, my heart wades through
Now among others, I seek the truth
The fog is so thick, I can’t see a thing
Alone in the distance, a bell does ring
The tower so far, I don’t see through the fog
The lies do surround it, a deadly smog
But even as though my eyes play games
I still hear the bells, so tame
On a mountain of fear
Up a stairway of tears
Sits the tower of hope
I’ve been searching for years
And once again, the bell does ring
Like God’s own voice, a sweet song he sings
Black forest of hate surrounds the tower
But I shall find it, in my darkest hour
Alone I wander, through sorrows so deep
The bells are my Sheppard, as I am the sheep
Slithering fog of Lucifer creeps
All around my shattered feet
Alone I stand in the valley of death
A lonesome sigh, a lonesome breath
The sound is closer than before
My only possession is starting to soar
Now I walk closer, a faint shadow I see
Into the distance, the bells ring free
The voice calls out, it sounds so sweet
“Climb on up, and rest your feet”
The marble stairways echo so dear
Now the fog of Satan does veer
He sought to destroy me, but I am so strong
I made it through, with the bells sweet song
A lonely door atop of the tower
The rain has stopped its sorrow filled shower
I try to open the door to be free
But I do not hold in my hand the key
I ponder a moment to search my soul
I now know the key, I’ll take control
The way through the door is my last possession
The way through the door is my own depression
I stand before him now, my father above
He smiles with a wonderful grin of love
He throws my last possession out the door
If sorrow were sixpence, then NOW I’d be poor
Seek to find hope through darker hours
Listen intently, for the bell tower
Once your on your last leg of hope
Listen for bells, to help you cope
Once you’ve found the stairway to life
Open the door, with all your strife
Do you hear in the distance, the bells that ring?
That is the voice of God, that sings
