DEAD IN LUST

My heart bleeds and cry But my eyes are dry I wish to weep But I feel so weak I've lost it all Oh what a mighty fall I sought for mirth and pleasure Fallen so hard without measure I lusted after what to eat and drink Left my future down to shrink I craved for wealth and power Mesmerized by the praises they shower I wandered far apart Greed beclouded my heart I strayed away and ruined my life Raced into doom in all the strife I'm defeated and I've lost my mind Solace of death is all I find I'm held captive by fear Loud cries are all I hear Fighting voices in my head A war between the living and the dead Dawn resurfaces again Meets me groaning in pain Burdened heart bleeding away Weary mind going astray What is life with no future Evil memories and all their torture Death, oh death, where is thy sting? Swallow me up and let my ruined life sink
