Last Words

Once you used to fight for me
And treated me as friend
You even gave your life away
My reason to defend
Too blind to see the scars you leave
You laugh at my decline
Indifference and apathy
Against my cries of pain

The hands that once rocked me to sleep
My cradle now destroy
The tender voices from the past
Turned into agonizing cries
Abandoned in the gutter
Among derision and deceit
Despite of all my begging
For me there's no chance for relief

Will you remember
The last time that we met?
Will you remember
The day which seated my fate?
Will you remember
That you're all the ones to blame?
In the final hour
Do you even know my name?

The air I breathe is getting thin
I'm suffering in silence
One tick away from suffocation
Longing for the end
Forever now I close my eyes
Obscurity surrounds me
From the fire once so vivid
Only ashes will remain
