The Eternal

Once we're gone
What's left for us
Will death be the end of it all

Scratch out my eyes
And submerge my mind

Cast aside this eternal nothingness

Darkness all around
There is not a sound
No way to deal with this ultimatum
A death stare, grips the air
Life was but a dream
And it would seem
That I have no point
No reason more than a solemn reminder
That we all wait for the day
Of our own, our own demise

The void is all I know

Calling into the ether
Emptiness forever

All that I have learned
Is locked within my mind
What will be
In the absence of time

So take it away, take it away from me
The end is all I see
So take it away, take it away from me
Extinguished eternally

Cast aside this eternal nothingness
I beg for serenity

There is no way to start again
No thought that can amend
No peace a god can send
No way to make it end

Lost in the void
Falling forever

Why are we here
Is it a reflex to fear
This nothingness
That I have called my home
When I've left my mind, left my soul

I'll never be whole, never be free
Or can I simply not quite see
The futures beyond me
As I slowly accept my fate

I am the void
The eternal void
