With peace a distant memory
and love so far removed
I fear I must retreat inside
the sanctum of my tomb
As tortured voices call to me
I ponder at the door
Shall I release my hold on life
of this I must implore
Since forgiveness seems so silent
and my sorrows seem so loud
My thoughts escape detection as
I face the maddening crowd
But hope remains my company
as darkness turns from light
All my dreams have disappeared
like birds thats taken flight
I marvel at the mysteries
which shadows ushered in
The halls of pain within my Hell
have started once again
I scream surrender in my soul
with nothing left to prove
With peace a distant memory
and love so far removed
