The Song of Spring

I stand amidst nothingness
In the silent haste of those now absent
Aha, aha
The cry of the voiceless monument
Takes my breath away
The only sound that remains

I take one step, deeper yet
Down the stairway of death

Life's meager thread
The string between two worlds divides us
Life's meager thread
The subtle outline against the dark

The quiet in the eyes of the others
The touch on their skins indifferent
And yet on the lips of every single soul
They defined me here
The yearning and solitude
Aha, aha

I take one step, deeper yet
Down the stairway of death
I take a step, further yet
All the way to the furthest chamber

Life's meager thread
The string between two worlds divides us
Life's meager thread
The twine that will run out but we don't know when
Life's meager thread
The string between two worlds divides us
Life's meager thread
The twine that will run out but we don't know when

I shall not yield before you
Bow down before the strongest will
I am spring, the eternal light
Unending will to break free
So write this unto yourself
Unto your bones, unto the marrow
Take the song of spring
