Upon the Grave of Guilt - Falconer

Deep inside the black and winding mazes

I’m running from my ghouls

My own thoughts are replaced by

The hidden faces deep from my soul

Longing to see time rolling by

To ease the thoughts of regret

My bad conscience tears me apart

How will I ever forget

Dark recollections

Gnaw my inside

I’ve tried to run

And I’ve tried to hide

Reaching the barrow

Of my memories

To lay the final stone upon the grave

Searching inner kingdoms

For control

To put the lid of oblivion

Upon the grave of guilt

As I look into the mirror

I do not see my face

Two lying hollow eyes is staring back

With the look of shame and disgrace

My past is darkening my future as my present dies

Every morning is a step towards

The edge of my soul’s demise

Yesterday’s demons is like a plague to my mind

That never seems to cure

Imprisoning me to

What I left behind

Letting my conscience

Unchain no more
