For Absent Friends

There is a voice calling for me There is a light coming down on me There is a doubt that is clearing There is a day that is dawning There is a wound that is healing There is a season waiting for me There is a road that is turning There is a fire still burning A sickness in me Constant pace towards the end The need is stronger This time the need is deeper There is a peace I am searching There is a freedom I'm depending on There is a pain that's never ending There is a rain falling only on me There is a dream I am living There is a life I'm dreaming of There is a death I'm awaiting There is a home I am deserting I hold my breath in wait Only moments remain Movement for departed hope Effect for absent friends Sever the faith from my body Leave me begging for more Take what I have and deliver me Into everlasting sleep Soothing trance Colours fade And disappear Ethereal light Showing me what I can do without In a motionless scene There is only me I take what I can Controlling you to get ahead Fading away And leaving Long for sleep Closer now Lead the way into death Every wretched dream I've left behind Every waking hour I lie in wait Sucked inside by will Gone into the flood All my questions unfurled As I was put to the test Once I'm below there's no turning back Plunging into the deepest void Departed shell left drained behind Pacing roads unknown Searching for a new home Desert in my eye Barren lands inside
