Literature Text

A dozen roses fade away
Blasted by memories
Darkness shifting into view
And where do we go
From here
Where do we find
The day
That we died
Will we ever find the way

As life passes us by
We reach out
But fail to find
A way
In the midst of winter
Across my heart
It splinters
And from the pain
We find it on
The other side

The doors are closing fast
Eternity cannot wait
Forever
Lasting on the wings
Spreading out for fate
We fly high
Higher
And higher we go
Landing upon the unknown
Until at last we find hope

As life passes us by
We reach out
But fail to find
A way
In the midst of winter
Across my heart
It splinters
And from the pain
We find it on
The other side

Darkness comes at last
Fueled by the fallen
Can you see beyond my past
Will you deny the hollow
Or with your heart
Will you follow
Us down

As life passes us by
We reach out
But fail to find
A way
In the midst of winter
Across my heart
It splinters
And from the pain
We find it on
The other side
All but the third verse is female vocals. Third verse is a bit tricky, can go several ways with it, so undecided for now. Inspiration is Nemesea
