Torn - Novembers Doom

I long for days like this

My heart pounds when you are near

The gift of life

Treasure it, for it is pure

Embrace it with all your heart

Not a thousand years of pain

Would be worth the loss of this

I hold for you a special gift

And on this day, a new life begins

(torn)

Facade the day of forest green

And calm my breath with words of plight

A question I ponder this hour

The light for me, or shadows engulf

(death)

I am the answers you seek

You stand before me

And I see your sorrow

Even now, in your agony

You can have your doubt

For one last time

(torn)

Do I make make the sacrifice?

To walk among the restless souls?

How can I let this go on?

Torn between love and life

All is dead in my eyes

(death)

Close your eyes and welcome the truth

Innocence is so sweet

For only the aging of the flesh

Shall rain upon the sorrows of life

Admire this touch of heaven

Before it fades

I remember days of old

And through your grief, one stands clear

I can see you forge a smile

All these flowers are turning to snow

For all is lost in your heart

It’s only her love that keeps you alive

Now’s the time for your pain to end

(life)

How can I ever live without you?

This all seems so perfect

So perfect, until I dream of you

And your smile is my sunshine

You deserve more then this

Your saviour has come

A strong soul to carry on

To take you home

I need you here with me

Follow me now

To pick me up when I fall

Before the sunlight fades
