The Summer Funeral - Sigh

Silence enshrouds the remembrance that is feasting on my endless pain

My pain the scorching sun has raised from the depth of my withered heart

Is it an illusion made up by my mind

(Or should) I face the fact that the past is alive

This must be an illusion made up by my mind, I’m blind

Death that once belonged to the dream is now alive and haunts me

A wound carved in me which time won’t heal, I know I will never be relieved

The memory I had to conceal inside

Tragedy that once belonged to the past now wakes up

The memory I had to conceal inside now revealed

A life my innocence had to prey

Lost and forgotten in a frozen memory

I’m guilty because I’m alive

I’m alive, I’m alive

An innocence my malice had to prey

Lost and forgotten in a frozen memory

Am I guilty?

Am I to be judged?

I’m the one

Yes, I am, Yes, I am, Yes, I am

I’m the one to be damned forever

Help me dream in this silence forever

Though my soul is not to be saved, never ever, nor are theirs

Help me dream in the heat of the sun forever

Though my soul will never be saved, never

Oh my lord, may my curse damn them to hell

Forever to burn into the flame I once fell

Just let them know of the price to pay

Forever to rot in the seas of decay

Their intention was evil but mine was not

O God do you hear me or was it your will

I am so evil but who is not

God is so evil if it was his will

When sanity died, the malice was born

A life to be saved and a life that was saved

My sin which I should have known

My sin which I thought I had buried

Buried in the past forgotten, forever
