Isolation

I know of a place
Not far from here
Where the world fades away
and everything is silent
A place of surreal beauty
I often go there
and I isolate myself
from the world
In isolation
Bathed in emptiness
Quiet contemplation
Utter hopelessness
In isolation
so intoxicating
My inspiration
Is ever fading
Solitude, my cunning friend
I have nothing
There is no hope, no despair
Only quiet reflection
The bleak, baleful designs
That I fashion
May someday come to pass
should I have my way
In isolation
Bathed in emptiness
Quiet contemplation
Utter hopelessness
In isolation
so intoxicating
My inspiration
Is ever fading
The weight of the world
Crashes down
It brings me...
It brings me down
I have drifted
so far away
from everything
from everyone
In quiet solitude
I will fade away
I won't look back (no)
I won't look back
Maybe someday
You will understand
Please forgive me (oh)
Please forgive me

Emotionless

A black banner
the groaning winds
a distant time
a forgotten path
Vast indifference
Dolorous hope
A treacherous mask
the truth hidden
Blackened inside
Void of emptiness
Oh sweet death
How I crave thy kiss
Death would be
Such a relief
(Oh, please take me)
The black birds fly
Above leafless trees
A gray sky
A cloudy landscape
Blackened inside
Void of emptiness
Oh sweet death
How I crave thy kiss
Death would be
Such a relief
(Oh, please take me)
Deep and cold
I can't feel you
I keep pretending
Trying to understand
The end approaches
The ever black
Closer each day
Without care
Blackened inside
Void of emptiness
Oh sweet death
How I crave thy kiss
Death would be
Such a relief
(Oh, please take me)
(Oh, please take me)

Resignation
09:20

Living a life such as mine
Is it living at all
Pain, sorrow and misery
The only constants I know
In the void of my soul
There is nothing left to give
No emotion to speak of
Isolated from the world
Like a leaf on the wind
Drifting through time…
I can't remember the last time
I shared an honest smile
Or felt the tears roll down my face
I would welcome happiness and sorrow
Just to feel something again
Oh I would love to feel
Deeper I fall into the abyss
Shades of black and gray
Overwhelming emptiness
Hides the light away
You will never again
See the light
Shinning in my eyes
Distant voices echo
Fragments of the past
Fading into nothingness
The hope that will not last
I see it clearly
In their eyes
Oh how they worry
My resignation
To accept my fate
I will resign to live
The life that I create
My judgment
To live within this shell
To live within the confines
of this mortal hell
They have tried to help me
Make no mistake
All I know is that
For me it is too late
So let me live my life
In my own way
I will live out my days
Until I fade away
Selfish indulgence
A much needed escape
An everlasting journey
Take me far away
Oh I will go there
Willingly
I welcome the change
Emotionless
The darkness which confines
Within this dead void
My empty shell resigns
Trapped in a dark and
cold abyss
The essence of my life
