Final Lament (Tristitia)

Listen to his final lament By the fountain of hatred and torment In silence we walk alone with his fading shadow "My eyes are bleeding as I bow Before my eyes a brutal truth My soul is dying as I watch the sands Of time running slow" "My lament I shall engrave While my eyes still are bleeding, Retribution before enlightenment When the dawn's deluge suffocates my darkness" "As I hear the God of thunder's roar The gate of sin awaits before me But first I got to witness and burn in My own sea of fire My own sea of fire The rottings angel's dead eyes gives Signs of death among the living" "Enslaved by hate, no words of wisdom Will fall from an ablaze sky My dream is dead along with my hope And I die once again A treasure of life between the veils Of the yearning mermaid A dreaming lifetime drowned in falls of illusions" "I believe it's time to meet my treasonous maker Abstract thoughts of desire feed our pain" The steps of the wizard we will follow The rotting dead eyes are still watching The signs of death belongs to his fading shadow
