I once felt the sun, warm upon my face
And the gentle caress of the wind
I once breathed in the mountain air
And felt the tall grass upon my skin
I vaguely remember being alive
'Neath the clouds and open skies
It feels like a time long since gone
Remembering through someone else's eyes
Now days have grown dark and cold
Those memories buried down deep
Dreadful longing has replaced emotion
Putting my hopes and dreams to sleep
The daunting urge to push ever forward
Driven by a need to fill the void
Any resemblance of who I once was
Is completely and utterly destroyed
As time slowly passes, little seems to change
The world around me seems dull and grey
My senses are numb to my surroundings
As my body drifts aimlessly through the days
I'm uncertain of where my path leads
And I care little for what lies behind me
The ones I love have long since gone
Their minds and their souls graciously set free
My fire lies dead upon the cold stone
And I am but a soulless, empty shell
Condemned to wander throughout eternity
Trying to escape the confines of this mortal hell
