With Nothing We Depart

I sit and stare as I breathe in the despair
The time has come for life’s reflection
My plunders done, collected

In my head, the words I should have said
But lips held tight by my intentions
When souls are for sale, cash in

The sun falls fast this evening
I grasp the final flickering
The hues of gold, I craved so long
Comfort no more, bring comfort no more

My poisoned bones, will soon be turned to stone
My head held high, has fallen
The hues of gold, comfort me no more

As I begin to see
This vision disappears
Now I can finally hear
This chorus turns to sneers

We arrive with nothing
And with nothing we depart

The sun falls fast this evening
I grasp the final flickering
The hues of gold, I craved so long
Comfort no more, bring comfort no more
