Oubliette

Alone, darkened tomb, I lay here waiting…
For death comes soon to collect me
It seems that Heaven won’t save a…
Soul that has used all its prayers

A double cross I’ve been betrayed
One man’s plot now seals my fate
Swift way to make problems disappear
A quick thrust a sharp blade
No time to plead my case
I’m beaten and dropped into a chamber

Unheard desperate cries
Concealed here and left to die
Inside the oubliette

As I fall my bones break
I scream out in utter pain
I feel I’m slowly blacking out
As I bleed here I wait
In this prison of no escape
I wonder if I’ll be remembered

Unheard desperate cries
Concealed here and left to die
Inside the oubliette
A room of regret

God have pity on his soul
Of his demise none will know

Inside the oubliette
A room of regret
Inside the oubliette
As I wait for death
