My Heart Is Leaving Here Lyrics

so the years they slip away
just flesh and bone no soul have I
mourn and mortify

abiding torment this is real
my epoch in this life a lie
sing your last goodbye

tranquillity is ephemeral
can't find the answers to the why
confusion multiplies

my endeavors in vain
usurp the meaning to this life
idle strands of time

you made your bed
now test your faith
from every qualm
is born a wraith
the years they sink away like sand
behold the grieving man

just say the words
that no time can cure
the rising anguish

just say the words
that no time can cure
the rising anguish

the promise and the allure
this is the curse that we endure
