Lyrics

These days are closing in
The end has become apparent
We're only here for so long
Will anyone remember my name?
When time has washed away
The dust…of my ashes?
When my head rests in a velvet lined casket
What's out there?
What is my eternal fate?
It only just recently hit me
That this life…is just a state
Mortality fading
Like the innocence of love
I'm scared to death
Of what's to become

Of my immortal soul
Of this eternal flame, will you remember?
Will your heart sing with pain?
Who calls out my name? (my name)
Who can tell me what happens
When my eyes close for the last time?(my eyes close)
Does it all simply end, in a blanket of darkness? (does it all)
What of my soul, what of my soul?

All those things you couldn't say, you should have said
All those "i love you"s lost
Weighed more like lead on your chest
All those things you couldn't say, you should have said
All those "i love you"s lost
Weighed more like lead on your chest

Of my immortal soul
Of this eternal flame, will you remember?
Will your heart sing with pain?
Who calls out my name? (my name)
Who can tell me what happens
When my eyes close for the last time? (my eyes close)
Does it all simply end, (does it all)
In a blanket of darkness?
What of my soul, what of my soul?

If I could take back all those misspent days
Every second of anger
I would wash my sins away

Who calls out my name? (my name)
Who can tell me what happens
When my eyes close for the last time? (my eyes close)
Does it all simply end, (does it end)
In a blanket of darkness?
What of my soul, what of my soul?
Who calls out my name? (my name)
Who can tell me what happens
When my eyes close for the last time? (my eyes close)
Does it all simply end, (does it all)
In a blanket of darkness?
What of my soul, what of my soul?
