These Weary Bones (ft Nick Magur)

Deep within
These crumbling walls
A frail, battered soul
Clings to what once was whole

Bereft of the fires of life
What’s left lies buried ‘neath ice
A spirit old, a spirit worn
Reduced to a whisper, begging for no more

A flickering flame
Falters beneath pain
A once proud name
Cowers behind shame

Crumpled lungs give barely a breath
This life more akin to death
Silent echoes of sorrow
Fill empty caverns with resounding woe

Years gone
Years to go
And these weary bones
Are so tired

Struggling
To keep fighting
And these hollow limbs
Are weakening

Endless
Yearning
And these age old wounds
Are still bleeding

Eternity
Beckoning
And this agony
Without ending
