Withering Dreams - Oubliette

Gaze upon the blackened sky

Stars burn bright

The span of existence, so mystifying

We are a mere fragment of time

We are born into the world

Void of corruption

No consciousness of evil

A dying innocence

A slow decay into darkness

Lost ambitions

For withering dreams

Tides of sorrow changed our direction

Our dreams slowly fade away

Contentment we seek but never shall find

A treasure we lost at the cradle

We are born into the world

Void of corruption

No consciousness of evil

A dying innocence

A slow decay into darkness

Lost ambitions

For withering dreams

In one breath

A brief moment

The curtains of life will close

Falling into the great abyss

Meet eternity where all is barren

Descent into the unknown

Our dreams buried in the grave

The anguish has ended
