Lyrics The End - Black Swamp Water

The End

In my time of dying
I stand upon the brink
I don’t have wings for flying
My vessel bound to sink
The world around me fades away
The sun will shine no more
My deeds in life will keep me, though I pray
From reaching the Golden Shore
I die and no-one will weep for me
I die and no trace I leave to see
I die and no love is lost on me
I die and no meaning there will be
I die
I killed a man, I watched him die
I lived a life of sin
I closed my ears to the preacher’s cry
My heart he could not win
No redemption, no remorse, no absolution for me
I reap my bitter reward
The path to light I will never see
I perish now, and all comes to naught
I die and no-one will weep for me
I die and no trace I leave to see
I die and no love is lost on me
I die and no meaning there will be
I die
I die and no-one will weep for me
I die and no trace I leave to see
I die and no love is lost on me
I die and no meaning there will be
