October's Monody - In Vain

Like a thief in the night

I didn’t see it coming

As it creaped nearby

It burns

Destruction in it’s wake

Ashes by ashes

It will all fall apart

Screams in the night

No mercy to be found

Agony rises

Dismay and fright

Hope is fading

No sign of daylight

Apathy fills the room

Discourage takes control

Taking what is left

No more strength to find

You will find no cure for this

Ashes by ashes

It will all fall apart

Screams in the night

No mercy to be found

Agony rises

Dismay and fright

Hope is fading

No sign of daylight

I wish I could find a ship and just sail on by

Let the wind guide me all the way

Watch all the birds leave and follow them

In search for warmer land

The rebirth of time

Will leave no man behind

The rebirth of time

Will conclude the faith of all mankind

Relieve us of our torment
