The Void

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Void Lyrics written by: David Wolfe "In corridors of dust where the heartbeats fade, I haunt the remnants of the life You made...O Keeper of breath…why summon my chest...If living is merely a trial of unrest? A lantern of grief is all You deploy...And its flame illuminates nothing but void…So why?...Why breathe at all?" [Verse 1] I claw through the dark just to find Your face, But the heavens stare down with a hollow grace. You sculpted my pulse out of dust and decay— So why give me life just to tear it away? Every heartbeat tolls like a mourning bell, Calling the crows to the keeps of hell. You raised me up just to shatter my core, Now I’m dragging these chains across memory’s floor. (Why? Why? Why’d you break me?) [Pre-Chorus] Father, can you hear me? Or are you ash in the wind? God, are You listening—why’d You let the nightmare begin? [Chorus] Into the void, I scream Your name, A question carved in grief and flame. Why give me breath if You’ll destroy The only love I had— And leave me in THE VOID? (WHY’D YOU TAKE HIM?) [Verse 2] I’m pacing the halls of my memory’s tomb, His shadow still lingers in every room. You tore out the sun when You severed that thread— Now the light of my life is a ghost of the dead. I rage at the sky but it never replies— Just thunder that mocks me and rain that still cries. You claim there’s a plan— Well, I’m dying to know: Is suffering the seed You expect me to sow? (Tell me—why’d you leave me?) (Suffering… suffering…) [Pre-Chorus] Father, can you see me? I’m unraveling slow… God, if You’re with me, then where did You go? (WHERE DID YOU GO?) [Chorus] Into the void, I scream Your name, A question carved in grief and flame. Why give me breath if You’ll destroy The only love I had— And leave me in THE VOID? [Bridge] Oh Architect of agony— You build with sorrow, brick by bone. You left me stranded in this endless night, A poet crowned upon a graveyard throne. So tell me, if You hear these cries: Why must love be the first thing that dies? “Why… why… why must it die…?” [Breakdown] Tear—me—open— Let the darkness fill the hole! You took his life and bled my soul! If this is faith, then faith is pain— A crown of grief, a god-made chain! (CHAIN! CHAIN!) [Chorus] Into the void, I scream Your name, A question carved in grief and flame. Why give me breath if You’ll destroy The only love I had— And leave me in THE VOID? [Final Chorus] Into the void, I scream Your name, Still choking on this loss and blame. Why forge a heart just to destroy The man I needed— And leave me in THE VOID! "And if the stars recall his flame no more, Then let my heart remain his final door. For grief is the ghost that I keep employed, And love is the echo that fills the void. You gave me breath…You took his away…And now we both...Haunt the same...Dark place." -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- New Album "Asylum" for download coming soon! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
