Insomnium
Dying Chant
[Verse 1]
As I lay dying at the eve of my days
There is a void inside me, hollowed by the years
Time has made these scars, burned them in my soul
Moulded this ugly figure of anguish and woe

[Verse 2]
Only death by my side, in the darkness waiting
I weep for what I've done, cry for what I've not
I beg for salvation, that cannot be found
Never in this life, not with these memories

[Chorus]
I have never shown regret
Or asked for forgiveness
I have never relented, no
Or yielded to prayers

Only vision in my mind
As I give my life
How she hides her face
And turns away

[Chorus]
I have never shown regret
Or asked for forgiveness
I have never relented, no
Or yielded to prayers
Only vision in my mind
As I give my life
How she hides her face
And turns away
