[Lyric] The Silent Passing (Aquilus)

Whispering thoughts from deep dark wells

Sleepwalking through the storm
Vacant eyed, dwelling inside
A mind in atrophy
Longing for the quiet

Behind glass, locked within
A romance of the malady

Late shadows bleed across the floor
And jonquil paints upon her walls
Till an eerie nostalgic, dwindling of the day
As night drapes her room intrinsic grey

Her embrace, the scent of the past
Ingrained to maudlin dreams you cannot wake

For the sun of yesterday has not left
But now shines behind me, on a sea of unrest
A frozen home benеath the waves
Nevеr to be seen, under the sun again
(What you cannot take with you
Through the passage of time)

Hollow memories of what once inspired the heart
After a long sleep you wake up old
And there's no one left to hear you

A cold empty room, where she once breathed life

Now a silent passing, until we’re nothing
