While Heaven Wept
Album • 1998
Tears fall from my somber stare Abandoned and nobody cares I watched you walk away As if I were never there You said you're not the only one in this world Yet you're the only one I've ever loved From my sole sanctuary exiled And likewise heaven above You have forsaken me Sleepwalk to the gallows To expel my hollow soul Unto fire, unto cold Into hell I must go A broken heart, a broken wing, I'm falling Into this pain deep within Infinitely spiraling To my sorrow-filled end You have foredoomed me When again these eyes you gaze into You'll see I'm still reaching for you How could you leave me here? You have forsaken me

Ghostwinds draw forth the clouds That will shroud me in black forever Once again I stare into the night Darkness binds my life and death together The dark clouds a portrait of her The black-cloaked face of death Her empty eyes a hallway to heaven But my sanctum is beyond unfathomed depths I will never be at rest Until the sun forever sets A solemn walk through this maze of paled stones Monuments to the ending of pain Souls cry forth from eternal sanctum Knowing only death remains Now I stand before the altar They call me from ethereal gates I raise my head in dignity Knowing only death is the absence of pain

The once beautiful flower has withered and gone It is memory's charnel vast that I weepeth on Lifeless, this lonely heart swoons 'neath my breast For my tears bring you back not, from silent rest Lamentations and woe, peace never shall I know Blood less bitter be than these tears brackish with sorrow Every promise ever born now lay broken False words are better left asleep on thy lips than spoken With autumn's dirge summer doth end And dreams, like leaves, decay into the wind Pallid as the breath on which they blow Is my heart, buried 'neath a solemn pall of snow This ice holds not sanctum, nor reason For thy heart's swift change of season With your dying, element and emotion unfold And I, I live no longer in this cold "Sadness, unlike love, is eternal"
