The Final Hour

Nigh time falls around me
Darkness closes in all the people
Who are sleeping safe and soundly
Content knowing, we keep watch

Through each and every hour
Power so unknown won't stop
The rain falling down my face
Sleep for hours eludes me

Drifting through the wind
I feel an evil eye on me all the time
The likes of which could turn and twist us all
Lying by my side, she waits for me like long ago

I touch her face, she cries to me
My ship is waiting, I must go
My eyes burn
Windows through the walls closing in on me

The faces of my past life
Are looking back at me
What do they see?
The ones who hate, our love will fall

But their face won't fade away
Tomorrow's not just another day
So, hand in hand we climb the stairs
Our path well lit, the promise is fulfilled
