My past had passed or so it seemed So full of hope, so full of need A moment lost in cracks of time What now is pain was once divine Too late to see the cut most unkind No more to do, the rite is mine Kneel down to kiss the earth and pray The time has come, and so I wait It starts a melancholy dream And when it tolls, it tolls for me I feel the touch upon my brow Nowhere left to go but down It takes me where I need to be And when it tolls, it tolls for me My mind made up, the pact at hand Lost all control like bleeding sand I see her now, a blur, a dream My soul is numb, my body screams A tainted wish of what could be Now faded thoughts belong to me
