Darkness now surrounding me

I gaze into eternity

A burden I had to endure

For a heart that was unpure

A feeling of tranquillity

At last my soul would be set free

But the last thought in my mind

A memory of faded crimes



The wrath of darkness in your eyes

I see it as I cry

A wicked laughter, betraying smile

I knew my life to be a lie



Night I am awaiting thee

Soon I will cease to be

A life so long, a life of pain

An evil side I could not tame

A feeling of tranquillity

At last my soul would be set free

Regretting now but it's too late

I step forth to meet my fate



[Plea of the dying:]

"I see your hand, a palm so white

I dream of day, here's forever night

I know that I will never see

The realms beyond, they are not for me"
