We Come to Ruins

The world's crumbling all around me

We come to ruins eventually

Years are deteriorating

The pain's excruciating

How did it all ever come to this?

I stare into a descending sun

I fall into oblivion

I falter into ways that tell me, "Go on"

I comprehend what my life has become

And different faces circle around

As I am lowered into the ground

Years are deteriorating

The pain's excruciating

Cast me the burial mound

I stare into a descending sun

I fall into oblivion

I falter into ways that tell me, "Go on"

I comprehend what my life has become

We are all waning

We are all fading away

Like a forget-me-not

On a midwinter's day

I stare into a descending sun

I fall into oblivion

I falter into ways that tell me, "Go on"

I comprehend what my life has become

I stare into a descending sun

I fall into oblivion

I falter into ways that tell me, "Go on"

I comprehend what my life has become
