Rayless, and pathless, and the icy earth
Swung blind and blackening in the moonless air;
Morn came and went--and came, and brought me no day,
And men forgot their passions in the dread
Of their desolation

To free the hollow heart from paining -
They stood aloof, the scars remaining.
Like cliffs which had been rent asunder;
But neither heat, nor frost, nor thunder,
And life is thorny; and youth is vain;
work like madness in the brain;
and if forever, Even though, never


Silence of that dreamless sleep. I envy now too much to weep

For deliverance for the pride once I had
God I pleased you but everything has just turned to sand
hear that the voices begging inside of my head
God forgive me if true faith doesn´t lie within my heart


Shivering scrap'd with their cold skeleton hands
The feeble ashes, and their feeble breath
Blew for a little life

Mad disquietude on the dull sky,
The pall of a past world; and then again
With curses cast them down
upon the dust,

To free the hollow heart from paining -
They stood aloof, the scars re maining.
Like cliffs which had been rent asunder;
But neither heat, nor frost, nor thunder,
And life is thorny; and youth is vain;
work like madness in the brain;
and if for ever, Even though, never

Silence of that dreamless sleep. I envy now too much to weep

For deliverance for the pride once I had
God I pleased you but everything has turned to sand
hear that the voices begging inside of my head
God forgive me if true faith doesn´t lie within my heart


As aught of mortal birth; Too soon return'd to Earth!
So I behold them not: Like common earth can rot;
Must fall the earliest prey; The leaves must drop away:



For deliverance for the pride once I had
God I pleased you but everything has turned to sand
hear that the voices begging inside of my head
God forgive me if true faith doesn´t lie within my heart
