Darken My Grief

Between The Cradle And The Grave

Darken My Grief


The cradle!... 
The life I live begins to end - 
Just death is slowly veiling up my dreadful past, 
There's nothing I can see before this moment and, at last, 
Time has lost its meaning - am I dead? 

As cradles swing my hopes up high, 
The graves await for me to lie, 
The hourglass has turned again 
For one last time, onto the end! 

Happiness won't last forever - 
It is shorter than a dream… 
Death, my friend - it has no beauty, 
It is not what it may seem. 

Many tears have fallen in silence for my life, 
There's still a hope for a new beginning 
As my past is lost, to pain me no more… 

With the light of a cold and lonely star, 
I engrave my epitaph in the four winds from afar!... 
The grave!...
