Sombre Corruption

Dusk has come to a life sad and long decayed
Where I once walked, old shadows lie

But in that beautiful void, the loneliest place there is
A heart is still and all words are ash

When a sadness draws me down
Leave me to lie, unchain me from the earth
Leave me at rest, paling to shade

When a sadness has lingered too long
Set down the sun and hang the silent moon
Close all the doors and withdraw amid the silence

In a bleak home of despair
A house emptied of its cares
A haunted fearful place lost in its own shadows
Harrowed but somehow quietly grieving

I long to stay here
Sombre and in corruption
