I've been here for
a million years
It's only been
the twinkling of an eye
This dark, this pain
it's so unbearing
Fire consumes
the tears I cry

I never thought
of pain so drawn out
Screams and gnashing
all surround me
Over and over
I keep remembering
I must bear this
through eternity

(chorus)
This howl -
I can't turn away
This howl -
keeps droning through my mind
This howl -
consumes my every thought and emotion
This howl -
keeps droning on through time

I cannot bear
this isolation
Where have all
of my friends gone'
This supposed to be
the best time of my life
My fate has shown me
I was wrong...

I hear his voice every second in time,
"depart from me you accursed one
I never knew you"

Jesus, please forgive me
I'm ready to accept you now
but how I know
you will not hear me
I had my chance
I turned it down

(chorus)

(repeat words after first chorus)
