Lyrics

This is my legacy of pain
Condemned to darkness for a thousand years
Though I've learnt I can disguise my tears
Inside the memory lingers on
Out on the cliffs I watch the waves
Incessant pounding like a funeral drum
Now every semblance of my heart is gone
They show how empty I've become
I wasn't ready; my lifetime on God's earth had only begun
I was the victim of Death's catastrophic mistake
No man sees the hands of the clock
When his moment has come, it's not death that he fears
No man ever knows what he's got till he can't see the light for the tears
I feel the rain upon my face
It just can't wash away a thousand years
And though I try so hard to hide my tears
Inside the memory lingers on
I wasn't ready; I thought that my life here had only begun
There was too much in my life just to take it away
No man sees the hands of the clock
When his moment has come it's not death that he fears
No man ever knows what he's got till he can't see the light for the tears
I feel the rain upon my face
It just can't wash away a thousand years
And though I try so hard to hide my tears
Inside the memory lingers on...
