Gateways of Bereavement

I stand as I cry

Mourning in silent rain

Death will light my burden

Endless is my sorrow

The gateways so dark

All these years of dying



Gone are dreams of velvet voices

I am you, we were one

Vast are fields I walk

Where sorrow never dies



The sky unites with the blackened rain

Summon with my tears

Now descend on winter wings

My withering soul



Let me die

Die, die, die



Gateways of bereavement

A temple of guilt, falling deep

Embraced in grief, my withering soul

Let me die, die



Die, die

Die, die, die, die



Farewell life and all I died for

Now my time is over on earth

Another journey has begun

Alone I died, not praying for mercy

Nor praying for salvation



A lonely journey in a darkened dream

Time come to spread my wings

Slow, descending from a silent sky

Death comes to take me away

And from the gateways you hear me cry

I love you
