Endzeit Elegy - Worship

A bed of stone

To wake upon

To a world long dead

May this sight strike me blind

Lest I envy the dead

Let my bones melt to earth

To cease and forget

In brittled cloth

A grave of rock

Above the world's remains

"I broke the surface of a lifetime of sleep,

Or so I felt. For minutes I couldn't will my aching bones to move,

To rise from my bed of stone, or my gaze to bend from the tomb of rock above me.

I willed my body over the edge and crushed to the floor below.

Through a mist of pain I started to see: I was imprisoned.

A forboding fright dawned in me, as I slowly struggled to free myself from my own grave.

It seemed my limbs would burst before I was free,

But finally at the very end of my strength I could see the world beyond,

And to my horror - It was no more!"

I have lost to sleep

Man's final days

Now to awake

Just to be tortured by grief
