Death: Journey's End Lyrics

Let go
Enclaved by the river Styx
Lies a tomb for me
My celestial sanctuary
Let go
An eternal resting place
All alone and forgotten
The Asphodel Meadows

Let go
Of the pain I feel
My disease-ridden remains
How my being aches
Let go
My bleeding heart
Beats slower and slower still
Give me nothingness

Let go
Relinquish all earthly matters
All bonds I've ever known
Let my spirit flow
Let go
My reeling mind
Is telling me it's time
Descend into darkness

[speech]
In the second year of the 115th Olympiad
On the second day of the waking moon of Metageitnion
The journey of a man came to an end

His life cut short, or rather fully completed
The thread of life might be stretched but never lengthened
For no one can overcome mortality

The darkness calls for everyone
In the end
Even the gods won't see the light of day again
