lyrics

Inside I stirred, my mind exposed
I peered out from my keep
The darkness loomed and now awake
I could sense the creep
The water offered refuge as the forest rumbled in
I indulged in this sanctuary weary of my sin

How will they remember me?
Surely not by name
By the cries or the whispers
Or how I stayed the same

Wading till the waiting's through
Beckoned from the sea
Drifting out and down, and out
I knew what entailed me
As I plunged I closed my eyes and soon the moonlight faded
I could feel it's warm embrace as life's swell dissipated

How will they remember me?
Surely not by name
By the cries or the whispers
Or how I stayed the same

What engulfs the beast has swallowed me as well
And so it goes: the beast bestows and I have joined the spell
He has taken hope and stripped but scorn and strife
Succumbed to indignation I have taken my own life

How will they remember me?
Surely not by name
By the cries or the whispers
Or how I stayed the same

How will they remember me?
Surely not by name
By the cries or the whispers
Or how I stayed the same
