My Lament

The Burden of Doubt

My Lament


Another bitter tear is falling
Yet it's better to keep crawling
Then starting to slide away
In the abyss of decay
We would have never reached the top
It was really time to stop
No, don't you ever take my hand

You won't lead me to the promised land
And liberate me from this feeling
Stop pardoning and stop kneeling
Our decision has been made
So leave my thoughts and fade
No, don't you ever take my hand
You won't lead me to the promised land

I can hear it in your voice
The torture of that difficult choice
And I can see it in your eyes
The twisted truth and the lies
What's that scent in the air
Is it the odour of despair
I can feel it in your skin
The cruelty of your sin

Kiss me now goodbye
But please don't let me die

It's time to make up your mind
Believe me you're one of a kind
I can hear it in your voice
And see it in your eyes
I can smell it in the air
And feel it on your skin
The cruelty of your sin
So kiss me now goodbye
But please don't let me die
