This Howl
I've been here for
a million years
it's only been
the twinkling of an eye
this dark, this pain
it's so unbearing
fire consumes
the tears I cry
I never thought
of pain so drawn out
screams and gnashing
all surround me
over and over
I keep remembering
I must bear this
through eternity
(chorus)
this howl
I can't turn away
this howl
keeps droning through my mind
this howl
consumes my every thought and emotion
this howl
keeps droning on through time
I cannot bear
this isolation
where have all
of my friends gone?
this supposed to be
the best time of my life
my fate has shown me
I was wrong...
I hear his voice every second in time,
"depart from me you accursed one
I never knew you"
Jesus, please forgive me
I'm ready to accept you now
but how I know
you will not hear me
I had my chance
I turned it down
(chorus)
(repeat words after first chorus)
