An Elegy for the Departed Lyrics


Know that you are always in my heart

Even though I must from here depart

Unto those absented, I give a final wish

That an understanding will come from what I did

The entrapment

Within a dark embrace

The withering of my soul

Confined unto this place

A love, once blossoming, hath now deceased

In staying, the hatred will only increase

In remaining true, I am deluding myself and you

That some reprieve will come, and we can start anew

The bonds that were built

Are now irrevocably destroyed

In that your emotional

Arsenal was employed

The elation that is felt at the prospect of moving on

Must be an omen for things that are to come

To be free, to take flight, to leave the numbness behind

Will be better than the despair and sadness that I currently find

On pale reflection

I know within my heart

I cannot remain here

To remove the broken part

I cannot endure

Cold stares and vacant eyes

Ex comunicatus

This love for you hath died

Unto the departed

I give a final wish

That an understanding will come

From what I did...
