Epitaph

Embark on shadows fall
Mark the end of all
In turn beckon me
Howling my name
Witness the curtains close
Expose a black rose
I reckon the remedy mine
Is to rewind
May this candle glow eternal

Down to the second core
All but a soul to soar
On wings of destiny
No tomorrow
Witness me as I fade
For I am not afraid
I reckon the legacy mine
Bound to remind
May this cascade flow eternal

As from fear and scorn inside
Is born a day anew
We try to fail again

As from ache and ire inside
Is born a day anew
We rise to fall again

To be ephemeral
The scent of end appalls
Fate sickens me
Kneel to its will
Witness too turns to grey
Will burn and fade away
For life makes them all
Learn the hard way
Fleeting cast yet show eternal

As from grief and woe inside
Is born a day anew
We live to die again
