Fare thee well bright sunny days forever lost in endless dreams
These fickle wishes of timeless love eternally block your beams
The silent screams deafen my ears and darkness lights the room
While lonely emptiness restrains me and invades my happy tomb
Solitude and isolation keep me company so I’m not alone
Deadly secrets hidden deep within sit proudly on their throne
The angel of virtue would rescue me if I had not clipped her wings
Wicked delusions entrap me instead and inflict their deadly sting
The time to face the truth has come; no longer am I free
I have no other one to blame; the fault now falls to me
I chose the path I walk on now; it was never laid before
I left the battle before the end and the penalty I chose to ignore
The cost of my ignorant surrender was more than just defeat
I could have had my hearts desire but lost it all by my retreat
I now fight for a shadow of what was once my own
But I cannot calm the fear in me as I stare at the unknown
