Dethroned Brought so low I fall ever deeper below No man remains unbroken before this This impending trial The weight of the years in silence Leaving etchings engraved into flesh Marks that will not vanish Around your throat hangs the noose The one that will seal your fate A cruel grasp on the spirit that shattered By the weight of the years in silence The abyss is calling Singing nightly serenades And you answer its siren call The cavernous despair engulfs me I am without regret before this As I become the author of this ending Closing the final chapter Let it all come to pass Reap now the harvest of grief Walk the dark path laid out before you Heir to misfortune Forever the dweller in shadows Your end now draws near Your wait comes to a close Let this one last sunrise Fill your weary eyes Grieve not this departure This ending of despair
