What Is Waiting Lyrics

Discover me, my time from memories
Fleeting glimpses of a gleaming persistence
Portraits will hang, of memories we made
Hung in hallways we will never walk again

In reverie, silence will comfort me
Pondering existence in the conflict of shallow breathing

I will flee my bones
Consciousness will collapse
Our time has come and gone
Every loved one's voice surrounds me
Singing me to a deep sleep

Oh, it's always on my mind
And I can't sleep tonight
Darkness plagues me, I'm paralyzed
What is waiting on the other side?

Absent beings
Removed of my body I leave the world behind
Omniscient, reborn

And if I knew then what I know now
I would have made some changes, rewrote the ending
Rewrite regret

Oh it's always on my mind
And I can't sleep tonight
Darkness plagues me, I'm paralyzed
What is waiting on the other side?

When you know it ends...
And how we get there has yet to be defined

To spend your time consumed with thoughts of a life you've led
A lack of direction is wearing down your weary head
I terrify myself for I am the cancer that's killing me
There's just no way to know how life will ebb and flow
Measure the journey, rejoice in the ending

I want you to know
Don't lay your head to rest in anguish
Find peace in time, your peace of mind before you close your eyes

I will go gently into the night without remorse plaguing my feeble mind
