I've been here for

a million years

it's only been

the twinkling of an eye

this dark, this pain

it's so unbearing

fire consumes

the tears I cry

I never thought

of pain so drawn out

screams and gnashing

all surround me

over and over

I keep remembering

I must bear this

through eternity

(chorus)

this howl

I can't turn away

this howl

keeps droning through my mind

this howl

consumes my every thought and emotion

this howl

keeps droning on through time

I cannot bear

this isolation

where have all

of my friends gone?

this supposed to be

the best time of my life

my fate has shown me

I was wrong...

I hear his voice every second in time,

"depart from me you accursed one

I never knew you"

Jesus, please forgive me

I'm ready to accept you now

but how I know

you will not hear me

I had my chance

I turned it down

(chorus)

(repeat words after first chorus)
