Lyrics December - Assemblage 23

December

In the passing light
Silent and alone
Trying to make sense
A fate now set in stone
Never enough time
Somehow it isn’t fair
Sprinting towards the finish
Running out of air
When December ends
At last you will be free
Unbound from Earthly plight
Unfettered by disease
When December ends
The pain will disappear
Your worries all behind you
No more suffering or fear
Every day is pain
A dull, narcotic haze
Brief moments of awareness
Losing track of days
The world seems so dim
As faculties decline
Your body just a prison
To trap your mind inside
When December ends
At last you will be free
Unbound from Earthly plight
Unfettered by disease
When December ends
The pain will disappear
Your worries all behind you
No more suffering or fear
When the moment came
A tear fell from your eye
Your senses overwhelmed
A beauty words defy
Weightless and complete
A sudden sense of ease
May your spirit carry on
As the wind that shakes the trees
When December ends
At last you will be free
Unbound from Earthly plight
Unfettered by disease
When December ends
The pain will disappear
Your worries all behind you
No more suffering or fear
