After the End Lyrics

Album: Dust

Lying facing the precipice

Breathing slowly soon to be gone

I reflect on all memories of times before

In these final moments into the murky twilight I walk

or so I should believe yet what can be seen

What can remain? Only a shell I’m no longer here

Eclipsed in shadows the future will remain

Certainty in but one truth

For the ones left behind

Never to be learned

Never to be found

Knowledge comes only in death

To know yet not learn

To End every thought

To reach the last moment

Embrace it

For peace cannot be found

In lies of eternity

True relief true clarity

In darkness

After the end

Nothing remains

Lack of thought lack of feeling

Peace will come through the end of it all

No pain no fear

Born out of dust

Journey through life

Toward the last destination

Peace will come through the end of it all

No pain no fear

Run

Try to hide

Escape

The future that lies

Hope

Underlies

The futile attempt

To outwit time

Helpless

Drifting

Trying to understand

Finding a reason

To be what i’ve always known

Learning

Realisation

Understanding truth

Nothing is there

After the end

Finality

After all I’ve heard

After all the lies

Clarity has come

In fading light

After the end

Nothing remains

Lack of thought lack of feeling

Peace will come through the end of it all

No pain no fear

Born out of dust

Journey through life

Toward the last destination

Peace will come through the end of it all

No pain no fear

Weakening slowly

Withering away

Fading into

everlasting darkness

No fear no fighting

I welcome it now

To feel the sweet release

The Embrace of nothing

Run

Try to hide

Escape

The future that lies

Hope

Underlies

The futile attempt

To outwit time

Helpless

Drifting

Trying to understand

Finding a reason

To be what i’ve always known

Learning

Realisation

Understanding truth

Nothing is there

After the end finality
