My Dying Reflections Of Life And Death Lyrics - Green Carnation

Pain is self-inflicted, cause is not 

I long for my time, long before its due 

tired of resting in despair 

Judge me for who I am 

relieve me for what I am 

Remember me for what I was 

Forgive me for what I became 

Where shadows speak of memories 

I stand alone in my dark and lonely world 

surrounded by this cold embrace of temptation 

White bewinged angel of light 

tempts me to change my life 

come, come to me, she whispers 

longing eyes, she stares through my soul and mind 

wants me to become one of the light 

ah, serpent of lust and lie, where will my path go? 

Should I be tempted by the light or should I remain in darkness 

all alone, all alone..... 

Why all this sorrow, why all this confusion? 

I was one of thee, why am I left behind? 

Hate - fills my mind 

Sorrow - breeds my life 

But of those I choose, no one is sent out from you 

My way will be long, my road will be unknown 

path to eternity, eternity lasts forever 

light of day, day of darkness 

I will never be trustfull again.... 

I am not for you, I am not for those 

not for light, not for life 

Farewell to sunlit world 

on the dark side we will meet 

we will meet again after life... 

Time passes slowly 

I fade away, life drained 

what used to be, what could have been now 

I feel no pleasure, only pain 

I feed upon my fear of life 

trapped in agony and despair 

Anguish of the night 

I will meet you again 

on the other side...
