The Remembrance Ballad

These days are closing in, the end has become apparent
Were only here for so long, will anyone remember my name
When time has washed away, the dust of my ashes?
When my head rests in a velvet lined casket?

Whats out there? What is my eternal fate?
It only just recently hit me, that this life is just a state
Mortality fading, like the innocence of love
Im scared to death, of whats to become

Of my immortal soul, of this eternal flame, will you remember?
Will your heart sing with pain? Who calls out my name?
Who can tell me what happens, when my eyes close for the last time?
Does it all simply end, in a blanket of darkness?
What of my soul, what of my soul?

All those things you couldnt say, you should have said
All those 'I love you's' lost, weighed more like lead on your chest
All those things you couldnt say, you should have said
All those 'I love you's' lost, weighed more like lead on your chest

Of my immortal soul, of this eternal flame, will you remember?
Will your heart sing with pain? Who calls out my name?
Who can tell me what happens, when my eyes close for the last time?
Does it all simply end, in a blanket of darkness?
What of my soul, what of my soul?

If I could take back all those misspent days
Every second of anger, I would wash my sins away

Who calls out my name? Who can tell me what happens
When my eyes close for the last time?
Does it all simply end, in a blanket of darkness?
What of my soul, what of my soul?

Who calls out my name?
Who can tell me what happens, when my eyes close for the last time?
Does it all simply end, in a blanket of darkness?
What of my soul, what of my soul?
