Amarok - IV - Survival Lyrics

by Enth

I walk alone in the shadow of the sun

Deaths cold embrace is creeping up my spine

Life's blood draining from my soul

There’s no hope in sight

Light is fading, fighting to keep sane, will is giving out

Emptiness ahead; why should i go on?

Distant memories of my former life

How did this happen? Am I doomed to die?

I won’t let this be the end

Digesting pain, I choke the blackness back

Swallowing terror I fight to save myself

I call upon my ancestors feeding off their life force

I feel death's grip loosening

Skin is tearing right from my bones

I scream out; but death holds strong

With a final surge of desperation I take a step and I break free

I want to live

Laying in the middle of the road I realize I cannot give up

If I waste this chance that I’ve been given at life it wont be long

Before death comes to claim what I have stolen, I’ve got to start moving

Dragging myself up off the ground I won't ever stop

I look at death in the face and laugh.Is that all that you’ve got?

You laugh, your nothing, death will have its day

Time passes, life slips back into my hand

Your essence will fade, but death will remain
