The Remembrance Ballad

These days are closing in,
The end has become apparent,
We're only here for so long,
Will anyone remember my name
When time has washed away
The dust or our ashes?
When my head rests
In a velvet lined casket?
What's out there?
What is my eternal fate?
It only just recently hit me
That this life I just a state,
Mortality fading,
Like the innocence of love,
I'm scared to death
Of whats to become

Chorus:
Of my immortal soul,
Of this eternal flame,
Will you remember?
Will your heart sing with pain?
Who calls out my name?
Who can tell me what happens
When my eyes close for the last time?
Does it all simply end
In a blanket of darkness,
What of my soul, what of my soul?

All those things you couldn't say,
You should have said,
All those I love you's lost,
Weighed more like lead on your chest.
All those things you couldn't say,
You should have said,
All those I love you's lost,
Weighed more like lead on your chest.

Chorus

What if I could take all those misspent days?
Every second of anger,
I would wash my sins away.

Chorus
