Lyrics The Dying Embers of Life - The Raven Age

The Dying Embers of Life

As I’m gazing out across the empty shoreline
There are many questions running through my mind
As the waves caress the rocks upon my island
I count the days until I feel them on my skin
Have I become
The very one
The very man I hoped I’d never have to me
Look at me now
I’m here somehow
And I’m surrounded by the weeping of the sea
This cage that I call my home
Never ceases to oppress my sorry soul
The dying embers of life in me are gone
As I lay here growing older
As the night begins to fall and day is fading
Told mantic by the flickering of city lights
But when I lay my mind to rest a dream of freedom
I hope I never have to open up my eyes
The damage done
All hope is gone
This place was built for people never to escape
Beyond these walls
Lies everything
I ever wanted but for now I’ll have to wait
This cage that I call my home
Never ceases to oppress my sorry soul
The dying embers of life in me are gone
As I lay here growing older
This cage that I call my home
Never ceases to oppress my sorry soul
The dying embers of life in me are gone
As I lay here growing older
