Stand
Frozen
Dread instilled
In the motionless void
The hands of time are still
Stare
Breathless
Draped in guilt
In the realm which is gray
The quiet starts to kill
Colorless and frail
With every minute that is sure to pass
The pillars of hope
Now adorn the earth
Slowly we inhale
To realize there's no one there
You are a ghost
No one's coming for you
No one's coming for you
The hands of time commence
Whether you're ready makes no difference
Don't blame the hand that deals
As you begin to kneel
The hands of time spare none
Heartlessly ticking on and on
Dismantling your bliss
Your prayers have been dismissed
Breath
Slowing
Lungs don't fill
In the motionless void
The hands of time are still
Frost
Scatters
Callous chill
On the coldest of stones
My blood begins to spill
Colorless and frail
With every minute that is sure to pass
The pillars of hope
Now adorn the earth
Slowly we inhale
To realize there's no one there
You are a ghost
No one's coming for you
In the motionless void
The hands of time are still
Grinding
Crushing
All I've built
As the pillars collapse
My destiny's fulfilled
